The Revival of a Frontman

The gritty frontman John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival is back in action.

And it's a pretty exciting revival if you think about it.

Any band who can pack 13 hit singles within short four year period has my respect.

The ingenious aspect of CCR was their ability to emphasize rustic backgrounds while still staying within the realms of the rock genre.

Not only did they stay within those boundaries, but they also, surprisingly, provided the raw, gritty sounds that have remained as a staple to rock music ever since.

John Fogerty has recently released his solo album "Revival" and has begun performing.

Jonathan Perry comments on the concert in his article A powerhouse revival for a classic-rock icon: The cumulative effect was a masterful, triumphant concert that fused Fogerty's spirit, songs, and showmanship into an indomitable, indelible whole.

One should expect nothing less from this man, a living legend.
