John Fogerty (Creedence Clearwater Revival) - Grammy Museum Interview 

50 years later... When grandpa's cooler than the grandkids! 👍

Been a fan of Mr. Fogerty and CCR since I was 9 years old. I'll be 63 in a couple of months. John Fogerty and CCR saved me from suicide when I was in my early teens. Just read his book. It's an eye opener. When I listen to John Fogerty and CCR, the whole neighborhood listens as well. Keep on rockin' John. Love ya, man.

I guess Zaentz and his minions thought they could own an E7 chord! John Fogerty is a GIANT of songwriting love this interview. Thanks.

We're still with you John!!!!!

John's crime was sounding like himself. So glad for him that he won. He's a national treasure.

I’ve been listening to CCR since the beginning. When my son came along, when he was six years old I took him to see John Fogerty in Boston. My Son had a White Red Sox Jersey on I managed to get tickets in the sixth row in the middle. At the end of the first song ( Born on the Bayou) John tipped his hat, saluted, and bowed to my son. Immediately my son started to jump up-and-down yelling dad he said hi to me dad he said hi to me and tears of joy started running down his face. Me and my Late Brother Michael were floored. I can never thank John Fogerty enough for what he did for my son. It’s something none of us will ever forget. John Fogerty , you are a great human being. Thank you so much. And one last thing , thank you So much Julie Fogerty for coming along and Thawing John out. God Bless both of You. 🙏

He looks great for his age

John Fogerty is an all American legend

200 years from now, those will still be YOUR songs, John. Always will be. Thank you

I love John Fogerty and all the songs that he sings. And even though he looks good at his current age, I always loved his gap tooth in the early CCR days. 🥰

Fantastic interview! Happy 50th anniversary John!

Forever a true legend and master . God Bless Fogerty

John, you lived and continue to live your vocation and you always remained true to your calling. I see so many similarities with you and the late great Tom Petty. It's all about the music.

I have loved this Band n John for years. I have said many times this is my favorite band ever....

So sorry when CCR broke up. All together they were phenomenal.

John's playing in this video, clearly shows his blues orientation. Swamp Rock, the title, doesn't quite get at the root of what motivated John. Also, in this interview, you can see that John is not a Hollywooder. He's real. He's articulate, humble, and down home. He's a great advertisement for the East Bay. He's minus the appearance of schmooze. PS: John, don't apologize for being articulate. Your explanations were full, clear, and interesting. If I remember right, your mom was a teacher. Maybe you got some of your communication skills from her? That's what good teachers have: the ability to simplify, clarify, and make concepts accessable to people. PS to the PS: I saw Creedence as a three peice band, at the Oakland Coloseum. Tower Of Power and Tony Joe White, were on the bill, too. You rocked the house. Everyone was eventually out of their chairs. I still remember that sequened waist coat, shining in the stage lights, that you were wearing. You, were a one man hurricane. Great memory. I'm amazed. I can't do with ten chords, what you do with three. That's talent !

When John broke out that Gold Top Les Paul I broke out in chills.

Love his energy and music! Takes me back to teenage years and great Rock and Roll soundtrack of my life!

John Fogerty and Tom Petty stood on principle regardless of the financial cost: I respect these guys beyond words. And make no mistake, they *are men of principle.*

Ramble Tamble = (greatest guitar solo ever)∞

I love John! He's so cool!

What a very cool guy, he just so loves the music, great interview

I just ❤ the song's u sing and the music u make, i play it all the time even when I'm cutting the grass 😊 ❤ so talented. Grew up in the 60s

Outstanding. Stellar timeless. Honest through and through exquisitely beautiful.

Thank you John.....hope you well , regards xxxxxxx

Be with us forever

Good questions! I learned some things I never knew about. I always wondered why he sounded like he was from the South. Reincarnation is something I never considered before but now it sounds about right. It can’t be explained otherwise. He finally went to Mississippi to see it and check the roots of the Blues.

I. Song writer and guitarist I love it that he shows the way songs are written I think all guitar song writers write there songs the same its great seeing one of the greatest showing how he writes its awesome

2020 - celebrating 5 0 years of..... COSMO'S FACTORY🎸- THE GREATEST STUDIO RECORDED ALBUM IN ROCKNROLL HISTORY.

John there is something devine in you and the music you create. There is something about you and your voice of the higher order and that song Born on the Bayou, fuck man I love that song. Just gotta say thank you and btw I'm a fucking believer. Cheers Bro!

John Fogerty always will be best now and future.

Für mich der beste Musiker aller Zeiten

Your influence on my life made me to become a musician ,composer to make the right choices.Thanks !

went to his show at winstar on dec 31, 2019 great show

Love ya JF 😎 your friend always.

Live for another 75 yrs

I'm very interested over why John always sings Proud Marry using Brookline accent for the words "turning" and "burning". I hear "toyning, and boyning" very NYC like accent. fascinating

You relate to the regular working class and your fans, such as myself, LOVE YOU, We relate to you, and you relate to US❤️❤️❤️ your fan always Rita ❣️🙏🏽

Lennon, Mc Cartney and Fogerty

Great interview! Thank you for sharing!

John, My dream is to be able to see and hear you in a live performance and maybe play a song together. I'm very your fan. You are amazing. My birthday is on October 8th.I will be 43 years old. 43 year old John Fogerty fan! I live in the city of Ourinhos, interior of the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Imagine you want to get a band together and your little brother turns out to be the genius one... It couldn't have been easy for Tom.

John Fogerty god bless you!!!!

If John fogerty ever reads these comments lol I just wanted to say I watched your Woodstock stuff and honestly its AMAZING you guys were incredible if that was a bad ccr show a good one must of blew heads off there shoulders the actual band ccr was incredible I know you wrote the songs but the original band played them the best your band was one of the greatest in history and that has a lot to do with other guys I have yet to see a video of ANYONE ELSE play your songs as good as ccr and I love you john fogerty but not even you with your new bands play them as good as ccr p.s just wanted to get off my chest from a nobody to a legend

Keep on burning from 🇮🇳

don't ask me how, but I knew he'd play 'have you ever seen the rain'.

I thought I could watch this video for a few minutes. And then 1h40 are over

It is flipping great to see my Celtic cousin John has not gown a day older, when I get a job that pays better money I am going to save hard then bring my money down to the guitar shop and will by me a guitar just like cousin John plays, I will learn to play that guitar, write and sing some songs just like cousin John did. Has anyone ever noticed That John and Rory Gallagher have/had great taste in top quality workman check shirts

Thanks John

John was CCR

Jimi played to around 40,000 people, but it was formerly 400,000 people. so it may look empty, but his 'Jimi plays Berkley' is filmed before 2 ,500 people. I still think CCR should've been in the film. at the very least, on the album.

BTW, folks, Walter Brennan ,who played in so many southern and Western pictures was ironically born in Lynn, Massachusetts. can't get more Eastern than that. I hope John reads this, because it relates to exactly what he's saying about the southern thing. he mentions Bo Diddley, and I saw Bo open for CREEDENCE at Boston Garden . he was great. '72, I think

Para es la mejor mucica

Cool dude work at Johns house in hidden hills ..liked his dog creedy

this 'lawsuit' was so ridiculous, you'd think the robed men at the very top of our justice system could see that a man was being sued for writing his own songs.

Leyenda 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

john,,,,,,,,,,,fuerte abrazo,,,or hugs strong,,,,,,,,,,,the best song,,,,,,,,,,,,i put a spell on,,,you ,,,thanck you john....

When was this interview, please? And when was John's book published?

I don't care what anyone says. _Eye of the Zombie_ is a fucking great album.

I think Robert Johnson’s songs are or were owned by a company called King of Spades Music.

Sou fã de Jhon, muito bom, acompanho deste 1969.

Porque no viene traducido al castellano o subtituladi.

John kinda Biden-ed ‘Fortunate Son’ on this😂-“ And when the band “han”to the “han”, ooh they point the cannon at you! Instead of “And when the band plays ‘Hail To The Chief’…….”

Can anyone explain what the “Night At the Museum” reference means?

Lol if john ever reads these from nobody I wanted to say truly ccr was in the top 5 of greatest bands in history and I know enough to understand why you hate stue BUT if you believe in God you should forgive stue for just one last show before he dies of cancer its terrible the things you had to endure but for your fans and a going away gift most important God you should give stue one last great show his final thrill before he dies p.s you have the right to hate him but for respect of what ccr was and the memories of good times give stue one last show his last time ever before he leaves earth

Hand-held microphones?? Spare no expense.

How about doing the TV show Songland? It's a terrible show mostly because of it's narrow view of what a good song is. I would jump at the chance to write a song for your consideration.

Does he give Julie credit for every single good idea he had BEFORE he met her? So far in all his interviews she gets credit for literally every single good thing he does. Odd for someone who doesn't write love songs to be so gushy over his wife.

JOHN FOGERTY IS THE BEST EVER BAR NONE🎵🎼🎶🎤🎸 IT’S A TRAVESTY JOHN FOGERTY IS NOT IN THE ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME AS A SOLO ARTIST ‼️‼️‼️

MISTER BOB

Seems like he’s the Eagles stole some stuff from him

How can you copy right your self? 😂

John wrote them all. An American Icon. Needs Trump to give him the medal of honer

You can save the world Putin digs you. So put newclyrics to end the war..ukrain, rymes with rain..wear your hair no part mop top

The guy doing the interview will not let John finish it cuts him off he sucks
