John 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. Creedence released nine Top Ten singles, all written by Fogerty, between 1969 and 1971, starting with the standard “Proud Mary.” They also scored eight gold albums between 1968 and 1972, all fueled by Fogerty’s simple, driving rock songs and his burly baritone. Creedence split up in 1972. Fogerty first released 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, returning in 1984 with a Top Ten single, “The Old Man Down the Road,” and a number one album, Centerfield. Eye of the Zombie was released in 1986 after which Fogerty went into seclusion finally resurfacing in 1997 with Blue Moon Swamp; the live Premonition appeared just a year later. After a number of concert appearances, Fogerty released Revival in 2007. It debuted at 14 on Billboard, earning a Grammy nomination. Fogerty followed it in 2009 with The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again. Fogerty released Wrote a Song For Everyone in 2013. He continues to record and tour the world.
