The discography of American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, who released their first album and singles in July 1968,[1] includes 7 studio albums, 2 live albums, 14 compilation albums, and 15 singles. The group, who was only active for 4 years, has sold more than 30 million albums and singles in the United States alone,[2] and has charted in multiple countries throughout the world.
It is worthy of note that CCR holds the record for the most singles (five) to reach #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 without ever scoring a #1 single.[3]
