John Fogerty has been hailed as one of the most iconic rock singers to come out of the ‘70s. For thirteen years, he performed and wrote some of the most monumental hits and created an unprecedented legacy with the band’s works. Fogerty penned the band’s most beloved song, “Fortunate Son,” featured in the band’s fourth album, Willy and the Poor Boys. The song was certified triple platinum in the U.S. It was also considered an anthem for the anti-war movement in the ‘70s. Other iconic songs written by Fogerty include “Proud Mary,” “Who’s Stop the Rain,” and “Bad Moon Rising.” All the mentioned song titles have been included in Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
Meanwhile, “Proud Mary” and “Fortunate Son” have been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 1993, twenty years after their disbandment, Fogerty, along with the rest of Creedence Clearwater Revival, had been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Rock Hall hailed the band for being “the standard bearers and foremost celebrants of homegrown American music.”
After the band members parted ways in 1972, Fogerty pursued his solo career and released his debut solo album, The Blue Ridge Rangers, in 1973. The album debuted at number 47 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the hits “Jambalaya” and “Hearts of Stone.” In 1985, Fogerty released his highest-charting album, Centerfield, which topped the Billboard 200 chart. The record featured the top 20 hits, “Old Man Down the Road,” “Rock and Roll Girls,” and the title track. In 2020, Fogerty dropped his latest album, Fogerty’s Factory, which peaked at number 63 on the Billboard 200 chart.
