    John Fogerty has one of the greatest voices in rock and roll history. He started out as a drummer, having to raise his voice over the drum set. He developed into a powerful singer and also a great guitar player. He's also a very nice and likable person.

    John Fogerty's signature voice is one of the most distinctive sounds in rock-n-roll history. His songwriting skills are just as important for driving the unique songs of both Credence Clearwater Revival and his own solo career. We still haven't heard you react to him with CCR in two classic numbers, LOOKING OUT MY BACKDOOR and RUN THROUGH THE JUNGLE. And there is a video of a performance with the Fairfield Five gospel group from his album Blue Moon Swamp that deserves your attention. The song is ONE HUNDRED AND TEN IN THE SHADE. It literally paints a picture of old southern summer heat and musical thirst of hard it was to work in the fields. It made that ice cold lemonade worth the wait. Amber might remember those long gone days from her youth.
    Another suggestion, John Mellencamp-
    PAPER IN FIRE.

    Part of the reason John went "solo" was a dispute with CCR's record label. Afterward he started achieving success with his new label, the old record label sued him claiming he was infringing on the copyrights of CCR by sounding so much like them. He argued that he wrote and sang most of CCR's music, so the "sound" was his even if the old record label owned the copyrights for CCR's songs. It cost him a lot of money, but the courts ruled in his favor, saying that to rule otherwise would be tantamount to preventing from practicing his trade.

    Listened to an interview with Fogerty about how he was sued after leaving CCR and recording on his own. He suit said he was “copying” CCR and the suit was seeking to stopping the sale of the album. When he was questioned he just said I wasn’t copying anyone, that’s me, how I make music. It’s what I did with CCR and still do. (Paraphrasing the comments here. ) Don’t recall the outcome of the suit. But, there is no doubt about who Fogerty is and what his music sounds like, it unique and quite wonderful!

He is a well deserved member of the Texas Blues and Rock and Roll Hall's of Fame.

    John Fogerty was sued by CCR, which he founded, wrote almost all the songs for, sang and played lead. It’s a long, weird story, but the quick version is that this song sounds similar to “Run Through The Jungle” by CCR. He wrote both!! John gave up rights to CCR songs to get out of the band. There’s more, that’s the gist, but it should be noted that Fogerty v Fantasy was settled in the US Supreme Court!!!

    Well as I've pointed-out here before, Fogerty and CCR hail from Berkely California here in the Bay Area. BUT THAT is what is so AMAZING: How can someone from the cosmopolitan Bay Area sound LIKE THEY GREW-UP ON DA SWAMP? By the way, since you probably don't know because you two don't seem to know, well, ANYTHING, is that ''The Old Man'' is a name for the Mississippi River. ''Old Man River''. SO now that you have learned your lesson of the day, give this a listen again. It sounds like Fogerty is talking about how river denizens have to flee when the ''Old Man'' rises and FLOODS as it often has.

    You can call it Southern Rock or Country Rock. It doesn't matter where they grew up. They were influenced by this music, by the old masters of it, and they are channeling it thru their love of it. Databyter

      Absolutely. To say because they live in Cali, they can't be called Southern Rock. I guess you can't be singing Country unless you live in Nashville or more to the point, you can't sing Country if you live in a city. It's stupid.

    When CCR broke up, their record label kept the copyrights. This song, on a different label, is just a lyrical rewrite of Run Through the Jungle with the same melody. The original record label sued him and lost in court, but Fogerty's countersuit to recover legal fees was unsuccessful.

    To me John is the best! Believe their style is referred as swamp rock. Nightime is the Right Time by CCR is fantastic. Johns solo CENTERFIELD is very good. He just did a concert in FL fall of 21,had to be great. He's definitely worth seeing in concert.

    I hope that you all had a happy holiday. I would just describe Fogerty as classic American sound. He dabbles in the Southern sound, the swamp sound, the 60's rock rebellion sound. He sounds like America.

    This song makes you feel like your way out in the woods sitting around a camp fire and playing music with your friends and family. Also I hope yall have a wonderful Christmas.. Have yall heard of the band Bread? They are a early 70's band. I think you would like them there like a soft rock. The words to there songs tell a story you can get lost in the words. If is a great one, Diary, Guitar Man. Keep on what yall are doing I'm a fan..

    I saw John at Jazz fest in New Orleans, several years ago. I am 71 years old so, I grew up with CCR & John. J, Like you I am a city boy. Grew up in New York, but when John sings I feel like putting on some bib overalls & chewing on a blade of grass. BTW, at Jazz fest, he had the crowd rockin', We're talking about teens up to old geezers like me. If you go through his whole catalog, before you finish, you might be as old as me!

    I only got to see John Fogerty perform live once, but it was memorable. He played one of his biggest hits, “Centerfield” before a NY Yankees game at Yankees Stadium on a baseball bat guitar. You should check that song out, you’ll love it. Especially Jordan, being a coach.

    One of John Fogertys solo songs is probably the most played song at baseball games all over the country. "Center field" is a classic song that almost everyone has heard, whether they knew it was Fogerty or not.

    As a huge fan of baseball, there is nothing better than hearing John Fogerty's "Centerfield" on the radio on a beautiful summer day on the way to the ball field.

    When CCR started, everybody thought they were from Louisianna or somewhere near there because of "Down on the Bayou" and the sound they had, not to mention the name of the band, and that assumption wasn't surprising, given all the aforementioned factors. In art, it doesn't matter where someone's from, where they're going, what they look like, their political opinions or any other extraneous matters, the craft is correctly considered as an item standing alone, no other influences cluttering the appreciation of it. Ladies and gentlemen, Creedence was from San Francisco, but that don't make a hill of beans.
