Here's Run Through the Jungle by Creedence Clearwater Revival from 1970. What an awesome song by CCR! A dreamy groove that has you almost hypnotised from the start, powerful lyrics and two brooding and biting guitar solos delivered by Matt. Who doesn't love CCR and here's another reason why!! Often misunderstood as a Vietnam protest song, we can see why with some of the lyrics pointing in that direction. But research tells us that the song is actually about the proliferation of guns in the United States. In a 2016 interview John Fogerty explains...
The thing I wanted to talk about was gun control and the proliferation of guns... I remember reading around that time that there was one gun for every man, woman and child in America, which I found staggering. So somewhere in the song, I think I said, '200 million guns are loaded.' Not that anyone else has the answer, but I did not have the answer to the question; I just had the question. I just thought it was disturbing that it was such a jungle for our citizens just to walk around in our own country at least having to be aware that there are so many private guns owned by some responsible and maybe many irresponsible people.
Rumpus Machine is a sibling rock band playing live classic rock music and original songs! We are brothers and sisters from Auckland in New Zealand. We like to learn and perform new songs together and play modern music and classic rock songs. We also write our own original songs too and publish to Spotify & Apple Music etc. We like to play live if we can - but also enjoying sharing our music online. We like to learn the new songs and polish them up as much as we can before we decide they’re ready to video and share. It’s gives us something to aim for and it’s also good to have for the future.
