My dad born in 53. Raised me on this music. He loves John Fogerty. A few years back he toured with ZZ Top before Dusty Hill died. They came to St Augustine FL. I’m a truck driver so I couldn’t be there but I bought my Dad pretty much the best seat in the house and absolutely went even though he was alone. I just felt it needed to be done cause we never know if it’s going to be the last chance to see him. But Fogerty with ZZ Top I just thought what a match up and show. So a gift that my dad cherishes. We’re both getting u; in age now so when the opportunity is there, gotta do it.

The incredible thing is, they came out with 3 albums in an 18 month period, with so many hits. They were only a full band for a few years, but had so many top 40 hits. Band was actually started in high school by older brother Tom, and he asked John to come in and play. John quickly became lead singer, lead guitarist, and lead song writer. Then they all had a falling out because John felt their producer was ripping them off. John then got sued for playing his own songs and "Sounding too much like himself"

You should go down the CCR rabbit hole and explore their history. Way too much to go into here but, John Fogerty (lead singer/songwriter) went through hell to get his songs back from his CCR days and recently succeeded. He refused to play them for decades. He is currently touring with his sons who are also amazing musicians. We went and saw him at the end of last year and he is doing all the old CCR hits among some of his solo hits, and is still absolutely amazing. If you can, you should go see this legend. You will not be disappointed.

The fact that his guitar playing stands next to that amazing voice is actually crazy. His voice, his guitar playing, and his songwriting were all at an 11. As well loved as these guys are, I'd say they're still under rated. Similar to Sabbath in that regard - they were truly special.

Derided by many rock critics at the time as merely a “singles” band, Creedence Clearwater Revival proved to be masters at making thoughtful records that sold. The members were John Fogerty (b. May 28, 1945, Berkeley, Calif., U.S.), Tom Fogerty (b. Nov. 9, 1941, Berkeley-d. Sept. 6, 1990, Scottsdale, Ariz.), Stu Cook (b. April 25, 1945, Oakland, Calif.), and Doug Clifford (b.

TRIVIA:: Creedence Clearwater Revival ... were progressive and anachronistic at the same time. An unapologetic throwback to the golden era of rock and roll, they broke ranks with their peers on the progressive, psychedelic San Francisco scene. Their approach was basic and uncompromising, holding true to the band members' working-class origins. The term "roots rock" had not yet been invented when Creedence came along, but in essence, they defined it, drawing inspiration from the likes of Little Richard, Hank Williams, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and the artisans of soul at Motown and Stax. In so doing, Creedence Clearwater Revival became the standard bearers and foremost celebrants of homegrown American music.

I was so lucky to be able to have seen CCR 3 times from 1968-72, when they broke up. John, the singer/songwriter/lead guitarist tried to buy back his songs that he wrote from the label. Back in those days artists signed over the copyrights to the labels, only way they could get signed. John quit the label, which broke up the band, who just wanted to perform. It caused a riff between John and his older brother Tom. John waited out the length of the copyrights (20 years) and then got his music back. I had a ticket to see him in 2022, but show was cancelled due to unscheduled eye surgery? He’s still on my bucket list to see one more time. My nickname given to me by the guy I was dating in college was SusieQ, there first big hit! The first time I heard John’s voice, I thought he was a good ole Southern boy, but no, he was a good ole Central Valley California boy, from Modesto? My favorite CCR song, which is still relevant today is Fortunate Son.

I saw CCR for the first time in 1968, when they were a little-known band, as was Santana. San Francisco was on the verge of becoming a rock and roll mecca. I was lucky enough to live in the area at the time. The first concert I ever attended at age 15: (Performers listed in order of prominence, headliners first): July 28, 1968, Frost Amphitheatre, Stanford U., Palo Alto, CA: Chambers Brothers/Quicksilver Messenger Service/Sons of Champlin/Creedence Clearwater Revival/Santana Blues Band/Morning Glory. And here's a piece of rock and roll history, which I also got to see live: Three summers later, when Bill Graham closed the Fillmore West, Santana, Quicksilver and Creedence, all headlined. All were broadcast live on FM radio. That's how their prominence changed over a 3-year period. In fact, at the time of the Stanford concert, the university newspaper listed Santana as the Satan Blues Band.

My friend, you were so fortunate to experience Quicksilver Messenger Service and the Chambers Brothers live, two of my favorites from the late sixties. I saw some great music live in Dallas circa '69-79.

@@LarryNeie-lj7zc Time Has Come Today was popular and that is why the Chamber Brothers were the headliners. Quicksilver Messenger Service arrived late, so they ended up closing the show. '69-'79 - The greatest time span in rock and roll history. There are still some of us around that remember those days. I enjoy seeing reactors get blown away by how good the music was back then. I lived on the San Francisco Peninsula from '67-'77 and saw a lot of shows in the city during the Bill Graham era. From Jimi Hendrix at Winterland in '68 to The Last Waltz in '76 which was The Band's farewell performance with guests including Dylan, Clapton, Neil Young, Van Morrison, Ron Wood and Ringo Starr. So many other great shows in between, including the Rolling Stones in '72.

I actually Still have a Bootleg Album of Creedance playing the last night at the Fillmore made from that Radio Broadcast.....!!!!! As John dedicates this song to the places bands are going to have to go back to now that the Fillmore is closing.....then they play "Lodi" !!!

Two of them are brothers, the lead singer/lead guitar player and the rhythm guitarist. The Fogertys. New Orleans style blues/rock done to perfection. John Fogerty is still performing.
