John Cameron Fogerty achieved fame as the lead singer/songwriter and
guitarist in
Creedence Clearwater Revival and has since gone on to a chart-topping solo
career. Born in Berkeley, CA,
John
Fogerty and his brother
Tom organized the group that would become
Creedence as
the Golliwogs in the late '50s. As
Creedence, they released nine Top Ten singles, all written by
John
Fogerty, between 1969 and 1971, starting with the standard "Proud Mary."
They also scored eight gold albums between 1968 and 1972, all fueled by
John
Fogerty's simple, driving rock songs and his burly baritone, intoning
deceptively poetic ("Bad Moon Rising") and even political ("Fortunate Son")
lyrics.
Creedence split up in 1972.
John
Fogerty at first confused his considerable following by releasing an album
of covers, on which he played all the instruments, under the name
the Blue Ridge Rangers in 1973. This was followed by a formal solo album,
John Fogerty, in 1975, and then silence for more than nine years while the
artist worked out business problems with
Creedence's old label. But John
Fogerty returned at the end of 1984 with a Top Ten single, "The Old Man Down
the Road," and a number one album, Centerfield. Eye of the Zombie was a less
successful follow-up in 1986. Following the failure of Eye of the Zombie,
John
Fogerty went into seclusion. For the next 11 years he remained quiet,
finally resurfacing in 1997 with Blue Moon Swamp; the live Premonition appeared
just a year later. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
