Pre-Creedence is a compilation album by the Golliwogs which changed its name to Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) in 1968. This album was released in 1975 after the band had disbanded.

The album consists of tracks recorded and released under the band's prior name, although the final two songs on the album, originally released in 1967 as a Golliwogs single, were re-released as the first CCR single in 1968.

All tracks were reissued on CD as part of Creedence Clearwater Revival: Box Set.
