CCR 50th Anniversary Vinyl Boxed Set

Half-speed for CCR sounds about right.

 

Wonder who is making the money on this?

CCR doesn't own the rights to their catalog, John pays performance royalties when he does his own songs.

John Fogerty rewrote the contract for CCR after he convinced the rest of the band he could do that better too!

You'll find numerous interviews with all the original members, obviously, before they died, elaborated on this.

Meanwhile old Johnny keeps bitching how the CCR got screwed. He's right, it's just he doesn't take credit for the job.

I like the music, but he annoys me

 

Cool package....as I noted about the new White Album release probably won’t buy it but I’d love to have the book.

 

That doesn't square up with what the band members said, and their stories match.

They did have a family member that was a lawyer, but John convinced the others he knew better.

If you don't think JF was a control freak, look how he went back and substituted his own playing for other's without telling them? Fogerty didn't want a democracy in HIS band. He was adamant on having all the control

They did sign with no legal advice, I agree. But at who's behest?

John, because he knew better.

 

I'll add it to my list.

Still, 3 members on record, in a variety of interviews over the years, including his late brother, don't share his memories on this, but they all agree.

My life, my music subtitle sort of says it all don't you think?

He wrote the book, he writes his account.

The rest of the band, disagree.
