While Creedence Clearwater Revival is considered to be one of the greatest American rock bands ever, they never had a #1 Billboard Top-Ten hit. The highest they ever attained was five #2 songs on the music charts. John Fogerty wrote all the songs that Creedence placed on the charts, with the exception of one. (edit) In the autumn of 2004, John Fogery participated in a concert tour called Vote For A Change. The concert was put together in an effort to defeat President George W. Bush in his bid for a second term. The concert failed, but Fogerty has continued to be an outspoken critic of President Bush and his policies concerning the war in Iraq. (edit) John Fogerty released the following albums during his solo career, The Blue Ridge Rangers (1973), John Fogerty (1975), Hoodoo (1976-unreleased), Centerfield (1984, reissued 1985), Eye Of The Zombie (1986), Blue Moon Swamp (1997), Premonition (1998), Deja Vu (All Over Again-2004), The Long Road Home (2005), The Long Road Home-In Concert (2006), 20th Century Masters: Millennium Collection: The Best Of The Songs Of John Fogerty (2007), and Revival (2007). (edit) John Fogerty initially refused to play any of his greatest hits from his days with "Creedence Clearwater Revival", when he began touring as a solo act. However, he changed his mind after appearing at a benefit for Vietnam veterans. Fogerty commented that the songs didn't belong to him anymore, but belonged to the people. (edit) John Fogerty is 5'11". (edit)

John Fogerty: If you were to ask for a value judgement on my one-man band concept, I think I probably took it to its zenith on "Centerfield", but ultimately it wasn't a good idea. (edit) John Fogerty: I've also become much more the musician I always wanted to be. (edit) John Fogerty:I pretty much went for one tone, and I knew at that time I wanted to play a Rickenbacker. (edit) John Fogerty: But I think beautiful is simple and elegant, like a ballad with a simple harmony. (edit) John Fogerty: No, I've always felt with true talent, and a commitment to hard work, it is possible to achieve an enduring respect and appreciation. In other words, I don't take my fans for granted. (edit)
