I'm now a Senior -- surely one of John C. Fogerty's original fans. I'm rooting for him now just as I always have -- and he still has "IT"!!! Thank you for bringing this mini-concert to all of us. :-)
I was drafted in 1970, CCR helped me get thru some trying times, I wasn't a chosen son!! I think John Fogerty is a great human being, has a great heart, & is a great father!! Thank you for being the person you are!!!!
John Fogerty is a legend. Singing in the same key, and rockin the same flannels 50 years later. Remarkable. Also, it's worth noting, John playing with his family is, in my opinion, the ultimate squad goals!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN FOGERTY!!!! 79 YEARS-OLD ON THIS DAY, MAY 28, 2024!!! God bless you John, and thank you for the great music you have given to the world!
John is having so much fun playing with his kids. You can hear it in his voice and see it in his eyes. And the kids, they are so happy to play with their dad an American Legend. Thank you Fogerty’s. !
Can't even imagine how proud he must be to play the tracks of his life, tracks that he made years ago, with his sons and daughter. Such a lovely and blessing performance !
yeah I've got a whole house full of kids, and I've made a living playing music most of my life, Not one of my children will even hum a tune,,, John is a fortunate man,,
I don't have a favorite song,i love them all,your family is beautiful,I am 55 and got tears in my eyes because that's how touching and,beautiful your songs are and how time has flew by god,bless you all.
It was early 1980’s - I was in a dead in job - I quit - jumped on my motorcycle- convinced my 2- buddies they had to ride with me - we travelled over 23 states and thousands of miles from Portland Or to Florida and back - CCR was on my cassette player- inside my leather jacket - those were some beautiful miles - I’ve worked solid jobs since - self employed- no boss - loving life!! Thank you CCR - I know every ‘mile’ of your songs !
I’m 63 and from Boston and have seen John Fogerty 15 or 16 times. I have a Son who’s 32 and I took him to see John when he was 6 years old. We never looked back. We just went to see him a few months ago. We still get the same charge at his shows. God Bless You John.
This is like the ultimate beauty of music. Playing your music with your kids and sharing the legacy for the world. I was and always will remain a John Fogerty fan.
Fogerty got sued for plagiarizing himself and came out the other side with his integrity intact. One of the classiest things to ever happen in music is when the new owners of Fantasy Records gave Fogerty his songs back to him. He’s written some of the best tunes ever, and his family is adorable.
I remember that.. I believe he actually brought a guitar to the courtroom and played Run Through the Jungle and Old Man Down the Road. Unbelievable that he even had to do that!
I"m a 28 year old who was absolutely raised on CCR. This brings happy little tears to my eyes, thanks NPR!!! Many good family memories with these songs.
Eileen Dover me too...my parents lived and breathed CCR..kids at school gave me the stink eye bc i ran around yelling”have you ever seen the rain”...lol ..do i miss those days..you betcha...but the music lives on...from canada with love...❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦
Today is my 59th birthday. I vow to take nothing for granted, appreciate all I have, and feel love for everyone and all things. Thanks for that insight. 🌈❤️🌸
Sorry, My eyes teared up a bit . I am about the same age as John and I loved CCR as a kid . We are both getting older . A generation slipping away . Thank you John.
But it's not gone ! THIS is the beauty of music it'll go on forever! And ever and ever!!! My daughter is in collage learning to be a composer . She'll leave her mark ohn the world and I couldn't be prouder!,!!!
Wow, 50 years of listening to John on the radio and my stereo was Heaven, but to see him actually play and sing with his family is a dream come true. Thank you so much.
Saw you not sure what year, at the Forum in LA. Packed house with a whole lot of screaming fans. You have been my favorite & like you in my 70’s. Bless you & your family
Who'd've thought we'd be watching such family gathering type concerts a couple of months ago? But it brought out the Fogerties. And a fine family they are. When dad has written a body of work like that, they could play for hours. Good sixties hairstyles as well.
So true. Another thought: Who‘d’ve thought 50 years ago that we could be listening to John Fogerty and his family rocking out those classics at a time like this?
Hi John, My name is Rich, I'm 58 I'm yrs.old . I grew up listening to you... How time goes by.... Thx for your upbuilding, uplifting spirit.. You're a good man. Nice family .. God bless you all..
John, you're as relevant today as you ever were. I love the fact that you're playing with your family. Best wishes to you and your entire family. You put smiles on faces and songs in hearts of millions.
I remember when I was a young boy my brothers favorite band the CCR way back in 70's..God bless this man and the family,, stay safe and stil rockin in his own yard.
I aspire to be as great as this human being --not just as a famous musician, but as an amazing human being that has all the great aspects of living an entire life.
Thank you to the Fogerty family for sharing your 'journey back in time' with us! May GOD bless each and every one of you... and keep you safe during these troubling times!
I grew up listening to john fogerty and ccr ,got the whole ccr collection on album I loved it then and I'm still listening to mr fogerty today thank you john fogerty for great music ,
I love the baseball bat guitar! After self quarantine, someone needs to give John Fogerty his own television series, and a Grammy for these stay home performances.
Ha ha. I wonder if his kids ever get tired of people coming up to them and telling them how much their dad's music means to them, how he was the voice of several generations, and made the music of America... Thank you for coming to Edmonton, Alberta, Mr. Fogerty! I was in the sixth row, and had the most amazing time!
I love that your children play your music with you. You look like you really love it and are very proud of them and there proud to be playing with there great father.
I'm 80 and still loving Green River and all your other hits John. Love you and your family. God bless you and make sure you all ask Jesus to save you so we can all meet up in Heaven. Have you ever thought of doing a gospel album with the old songs like I Saw The Light by Hank Williams, Sr. People may not think of that one as a gospel song but I do. Thanks for these great little home concerts! You have a wonderful family. Take care.
50 years ago I listened this songs all day, living a happy life with my parents and brother and sister. Last year, trying to keep safe at home through a global pandemic, Jhon and his family shared his music and joy to my wife and kids. I was 13 years old, and now 63. Thanks for all Fogerty family👍
One of, maybe THE best voice in rock and roll. Not surprised about the music qualities of the offspring, if you have such a rock and roll icon as a father. Rock on!
Thank you John Fogerty and family for sharing this great performance during this troubled time. Your songs are timeless and have provided comfort and inspiration for several generations. You and your music are a national treasure and are truly appreciated.
While growing up, I played Proud Mary on stage during my college days. Listening to you with your kids made me happy and smily remembering those days. You are the best, John!!!
This just makes me happy. I have loved John Fogerty's music since I was in Junior High School. I bought a portable cassette deck and a CCR cassette with Suzie Q on it with saved up paper route money. Songs like Fortunate Son and Run Through The Jungle remind me of my increasing worry about the war in Vietnam which ended the year I graduated from High School. I joined the Air Force once I was out of school and my first roommate, after being assigned to the 1st Mob in Wiesbaden West Germany, had been with the unit in Vietnam... he had Cosmos Factory on the stereo when I walked into the room that first day. Centerfield was a huge hit and corresponds to the time in my life when I was going to lots of Seattle Marinier baseball games with a dear friend. Thanks, John Fogerty, for continuing to share your gift. You have some great kids!
I first discovered CCR when I was 6 years old back in '72. My uncle had Cosmo's Factory and I wore it out. I still have the Greatest Hits CD in my truck and it gets played often. Thanks for giving us a little relief from the monotony of this lock down both here and on Sirius XM with your family John. You're a cut above.
74 years old and still singing like that ... in the original key too! Freakin' awesome and impressive. Keep on rockin' John Fogerty + Family, you sound great.
So glad John has stood the test of time and is still here. Much love my brother I grew up to you on dad's truck radio and tape deck. So awesome you taught your family your talent. God love you all
As a teen in late 60's my good friend Marcus had bought the first Credence Clearwater Revival Album and left it lying on his bed. Later that evening upon coming home from his part time job his mom approached him almost teary eyed. (Understand this was an old Baptist neighborhood.) She told him she had been concerned about him before but was so happy to see that he had turned to "Gospel Music". True story, still brings a smile today.
Thanks Fogertys, one and all. Long ago people entertained themselves by making music at home. It is great to be your guest as you all blend into glorious harmony.
Extraordinary. When I think that the first time I heard Proud Mary was all the way back in the late seventies, when I was SIX... and he's still playing it. That's just extraordinary.
We played Down on th e Bayou at my dad's funeral a couple months ago. This really got the river flowing. Awesome video. Thank you for what you do, Tiny Desk.
John Fogerty, you are a living legend! CCR was a great band and you a prolific writer and great singer of life's happenings! Thank you for the great moments you gave us years ago. And thank you for keeping them fresh in our minds still. Simply put, Thank you buddy!
Vor ca. 40 Jahren habe ich diesen Mann mit der Band CCR das erste mal bei meinem Vater gehört....diese Band hat mich bis heute nicht los gelassen.....diese Songs ,diese Stimme,die Band CCR habe ich in meinem Herzen. Ich höre ihre Songs immer wieder gerne ! CCR IHR seit Legende und werdet nie sterben. I Loved

We agree on the squad goals. Pretty awesome!
Well said. Cheers!

Hard to believe John is 75 years old and his voice still sounds amazing !! So cool that he has passed his most classic songs onto is kids
And his hair is the same color hard to believe.

There is something so utterly genuine and real with these home concerts. Absolutely brilliant.
Long live John Fogerty! Greetings from Brazil.

Cak Redi did u see there fire pit? Omg it’s beautiful
Deine Stimme verfolgt mich mein ganzes Leben....einfach so perfekt...lieber John, Danke!!!!
Great music, and so nice children. Happy man!
I was fortunate enough to see John in Redondo beach this year. AMAZING! He was so happy to have his music back! Can't wait to see him again.
The positivity and the love like coming off this performance in waves. Thank you to the Fogerty Factory!
Wow! She is Gorgeous & they sound Great!
So fortunate to have gotten to see him in concert a few years ago. He was wonderful!
