John Fogerty has a new album coming out in August. It is titled Legacy and features new versions of old CCR tunes. “Up Around the Bend” is the first single. This has always been one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands, and it is insane that the music of CCR still seems relevant in today’s global nightmare. I’m not sure these recordings are needed but after a 50-years long legal battle he finally owns all of his old songs, so it makes sense that he would want to record them and play them live and get to keep the money for doing so. And damn! he can still sing at 80.

Is this YouTube link a current re-recording? If so, I’m gobsmacked by how his voice hasn’t changed in 50 years!

Correct. He brought in some new musicians to record some old songs. I’ve seen some interview clips, and he seems to be having fun.

Embarrassed to admit CCR isn’t a sound I’ve been able to appreciate, especially hearing how you love them. His voice does sound young, though!
