FORTUNATE SON John Fogerty CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL SINGER ROCK BIO Book
22 September 2022
Know the Tune
This is an honest if account from John that unfortunately does not make for pleasant reading. Fogerty was a talented singer and guitarist who for a few years was a songwriting genius. The breakup of Creedence Clearwater Revival, ongoing disagreements with bandmates and poor treatment from entertainment mogul Saul Zaentz killed his gift. It’s a story that he’s told with unrelenting bitterness for going on 50 years, and apart from hearing how he found the joy of his life, there’s nothing new here. While its undeniable that he was badly treated - the plagiarism suit being the most obvious - Fogerty shows a bewildering inability to appreciate how his arrogant self-centred behaviour might have affected others. You’ve heard how he took control of CCR. Well much later in his life he still doesn’t get it. At a school concert where the dads are performing for their kids, he tells them to get off the stage while he sings a song for his wife. It’s a school concert John. For me, the biggest disappointment is his abandoning of his brother. Well, he played with Tom and sang with Tom on at least one of those albums, but will never admit it or refuses to recall it. I would have thought that if you lose your big brother in a tragic medical botch up, you’d think back to the good times of playing at his wedding, and singing with him on “Joyful Resurrection”. Apparently not.
