I never realized that John Fogerty was such an unmitigated ********* to his other bandmates and his own brother.

Anyhow, I still love CCR, John Fogerty is an awesome guitar player and that whole Cajun inspired sound is to this day unmatched.

Heard it thru the grapevine:

I think you'd be a douche too if someone stole all your royalties and prevented you from playing your own songs for 20 years.:)

Figures the info I got from Wikipedia would be one sided
 
I agree with Spuds. The man went through hell along with the court battles to win his music back and then actually be able to play them in pubic again. Rock on John!
 
Descisions Descions;

So CCR, ZZTop and the BeachBoys are all in the OKlahoma City area this month. CCr without John just aint the same is it?, will probably be going to see ZZTop instead.

Dude, +1 for ZZTop! You're right, CCR is not CCR without Fogerty.

+2 for the Top! But god, I love CCR.

We used to play it in 6th grade at recess on our teacher's record player.
 
Fogerty played most or all of the instros (drums, too) anyway on CCR's studio records anyway, just as he has on his solo career's albums.

Guitar hook-riff maestro. And that voice.

not only that but John wrote all the material until like the last album when literally refused to do it any more and forced his band mates including his brother to participate and take on some of the load:deadhorse:
