Green river... Putah creek! Thanks John I think of your song every time I fish there. Never fails, Creedence blasting at the launch ramp and everyone giving the thumbs up! Thank you forever.
When Armed Forces Viet Nam Radio would start its midnight 'rock and roll music' hour; in Jan 1969 they would quite often begin with Creedence....... there was a period of time when we would have attacks launched (rockets and mortars fired only)...that we swore the VC were using the Creedence song to signal the attack;....it happened like 3 or 4 times.....that month.... John Fogerty is a master of masters....and I love this interview. Thank you so much....funny it was done so long ago already.
Absolutely the most handsome man in the entire world! I am so excited to see him in Oklahoma in January 2019! He seems to be such a humble and nice person as well. I must say I am head over heels for Mr. Fogerty!
Uncle Joe lets John answer the questions he asks. So many interviewers don't allow it.(aren't comfortable? are not allowed? I don't know) I feel a difference here. It's good.
I just googled Green River Syrup. Two different designs came up, I'm not sure which one is John's. But he did say it reminded him of the Sun Records label, so I'm guessing it's the yellow and white one, not the green one.
26,269 views How ridiculous. This world is so degenerative and stupid. This guy is a living legend, he is such a nice guy, but so extraordinarily talented too.
Please forgive for asking ,but What happened between John & Stuart & Co . Watched the film about being excepted into the Acceptance Speech . Can you enlighten me please
No matter what the other members thought about John being the Star, He WAS the star. Instead of going along for the ride, play and get paid well, they wanted more say in the band. SO John allowed the other guys to write and sing their songs and the Album FLOPPED. John called it but the other guys were jealous and wouldn't listen.
that 180 songs he was contracted to do he should have just wrote 180 crap songs 2 mins each and called the quadrupedal albums saying best of crap whistling songs , within a week and gave it to them ,,there u go contract complete
He wrote All of CCRs hits and yet his band mates instead of being grateful, betrayed him by selling their rights to the owner of Fantasy records Saul Zaentz. Even his own brother Tom betrayed him by doing that since Zaentz was his worst enemy. Eventually Zaentz even sued him to stop him from playing CCR songs live. What craziness! He couldn’t play his own songs live even but he eventually got a ruling in his favor. But the damage was done already and he became very bitter and angry and didn’t play live for years. And he refused to play with the two ex band mates again at the HOF awards show! Because the bass player told him money was more important than the music. He sold him down the river. But luckily the legal troubles are over and Saul Z the POS is dead. Good riddance!
I bet that Saul Z is wiser now, not so full of greed and I bet if he had the chance to come back he would not nasty, greedy and would give John and all the boys in the band the full and correct right
nice guys always finish last, truer words have never been spoken. Just look at how this awesome dude was stabbed in the back and betrayed by his band-mates and even his own brother for some nickles. Money corrupts all.
As far as anyone is or has a concern, John fogerty is ccr and only he has the rights. Awesome guy.
An interviewer worthy of John Fogerty. Finally.
John, I am in love with you, both the man and the artist, you are timeless, ageless, forever handsome, God bless

John's songs create amazing word pictures. His songs are as fresh today as they were almost 50 years ago. Great to see him still going strong.
John Fogerty is America.
JOHN FOGERTY ONE OF THE IF NOT THE BEST SINGER / SONGWRITER OF ALL TIME

Money is the root to all evil. Those clowns screwed up, when John had left because of their rotten greed.

Ever since his paper route, John has had a hard time collecting his money.
A. Desh, that is very good, you are quick
Interviewer is just awful. So sad that John wasted his time in this amateur stooge.
Worst interview ever! Had to turn it off two minutes 50 seconds in!
