Creedence Clearwater Revival Cosmo's Factory LP 1970 Aust misprinted labels NM
Original Australian pressing on Liberty, with tracklisting reversed on labels (see pics)
Cosmo's Factory is the fifth studio album by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR), released by Fantasy Records in July 1970 and released as Fantasy 8402, the same month as the single release of "Lookin' out My Back Door" b/w "Long As I Can See the Light".
The name of the album comes from the room where the band rehearsed early in their career. Bandleader John Fogerty was insistent on practicing nearly every day, and the atmosphere was often so smoky from everyone's marijuana joints that drummer Doug "Cosmo" Clifford began referring to the place as "the Factory".
Early pressings of the album contain a three-second dropout on the left stereo channel during "Before You Accuse Me" and an earlier mix of "Travelin' Band" with John Fogerty's first solo mixed behind the horn section. This mix was restored on the 40th anniversary reissue. The album is regarded as the band's best in their catalogue by critics and fans, including being ranked #265 on Rolling Stone's list "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
