John Fogerty Releases New Album ‘Legacy: The Creedence Clearwater Revival Years’

John Fogerty has released his anticipated new album, Legacy: the Creedence Clearwater Revival years, via Concord.

The album comes as the Grammy winner, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer and Songwriters Hall of Famer celebrates his 80th birthday year.

The 20-track collection features newly recorded versions of his most beloved songs, all written by Fogerty — a sweeping catalog that includes “Proud Mary,” “Fortunate Son,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain” and the release-day focus track “Bad Moon Rising.”

For the first time in his career, Fogerty fully owns the rights to his groundbreaking Creedence Clearwater Revival catalog.

“For most of my life I did not own the songs I had written,” says Fogerty. “Getting them back changes everything. Legacy is my way of celebrating that—of playing these songs on my terms, with the people I love.”

Both Shane Fogerty and his brother Tyler Fogerty perform throughout the album, recorded with Matt Chamberlain, Bob Malone, Bob Glaub and Rob Stone. It was mixed by legendary engineer Bob Clearmountain in both stereo and Atmos.

“Bad Moon Rising” has long been one of Fogerty’s signature songs—streamed more than one billion times and recognized as one of the most enduring rock anthems of the last half-century.

Legacy: the Creedence Clearwater Revival years is available now on vinyl, CD, and all digital platforms here.
