As a devoted fan, I can’t help but get excited about the upcoming release by John Fogerty! He’s following in Taylor Swift’s footsteps and breathing new life into classic Creedence Clearwater Revival tunes. The original CCR frontman is set to launch an album titled “Legacy: The Creedence Clearwater Revival Years“, which will be available on August 22nd!
Taylor, naturally, has re-recorded four out of six albums she originally produced under Big Machine Records. These new versions, titled Taylor’s Versions, give the pop icon ownership over her masters. This implies that her music won’t be sold unless she has some say in who is purchasing it.
As an admirer of artistic creations, I firmly believe that artists hold the key to their own masterpieces. It’s only fair that they have a voice in deciding its fate.
John Fogerty is doing his best version of Taylor Swift
As a diehard fan, I’ve always admired John Fogerty’s approach. Unlike Swift, he didn’t feel compelled to remaster Creedence Clearwater Revival tracks to claim the rights. He already owned them, but it took him years of relentless pursuit to secure them. After a long struggle spanning decades, in 2023, Fogerty finally emerged victorious, officially granted ownership of those cherished masters.
John decided to remake the music as a way to commemorate his ownership of it. This project turned out to be a special family affair, with both his sons, Shane and Tyler, who are skilled guitarists, participating. Notably, Shane not only played along but also produced the album.
The group consisting of fathers, sons, and Bob Malone is completed by keyboardist Bob Malone, bassist Bob Glaub, drummer Matt Chamberlain, and saxophonist Rob Stone.
The trio made up of fathers and sons is rounded out with the addition of Bob Malone on keyboards, Bob Glaub on bass, Matt Chamberlain on drums, and Rob Stone playing the saxophone.
Here are three tunes from the upcoming album that you can now listen to online. They are “Up Around the Bend,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” and “Porterville.” Enjoy the pre-release preview!
