John Fogerty

Musician

Leader and principal songwriter of Creedence Clearwater Revival and a long-serving solo artist, praised for swamp-influenced roots rock, guitar work and memorable songs; his career was marked by long legal disputes over publishing rights.

Born May 28, 1945; American singer, songwriter and guitarist; longtime leader of Creedence Clearwater Revival; engaged in legal battles with Fantasy/Saul Zaentz over publishing (reviews note he regained catalog rights by 2005).

DeBaser reviews treat John Fogerty as a veteran rock survivor — praised for his swampy roots-rock, guitar mastery and live power. Reviews highlight Revival-era continuity, triumphant live shows, and the long legal struggles that affected his career. Overall the reception is admiring with occasional critical distance.

For:Fans of classic rock, roots/swamp rock, Creedence devotees and readers interested in rock history and live performance reports.
