The classic rock & roll of the '60s has been milked fervidly for
years now as bands reform, re-record, and license their trademark tunes
until the cream is squeezed from each note. Creedence Clearwater
Revival's oeuvre may be the one towering songbook from its era left
fallow by its creator. Until now. After shunning his classic songs for
decades, Creedence chieftain John Fogerty has embraced them as if
they're long lost pals. Premonition presents 18 live tracks
performed in 1997 by Fogerty and a four-piece backing group. While
there's a sampling of new material, Fogerty's first live solo album is
dominated by songs he recorded in a remarkable burst that ran from
1968-72. Premonition proves that Fogerty was the Chuck Berry of
his period, with classic songs that are simple, yet profound. While most
topical material from the Vietnam era hasn't dated well, "Fortunate
Son" still pulses like an open wound, perhaps because it wasn't inspired
by noble convictions so much as blunt resentment. The majestic "Who'll
Stop the Rain," removed as it is from the turmoil that inspired it in
the first place, now sounds almost Biblical.

John Fogerty Biography
John Cameron Fogerty achieved fame as the lead singer/songwriter and
guitarist in Creedence Clearwater Revival and has since gone on to a
chart-topping solo career. Born in Berkeley, CA, Fogerty and his brother
Tom organized the group that would become Creedence as the Golliwogs in
the late '50s. As Creedence, they released nine Top Ten singles, all
written by Fogerty, between 1969 and 1971, starting with the standard
"Proud Mary." They also scored eight gold albums between 1968 and 1972,
all fueled by Fogerty's simple, driving rock songs and his burly
baritone, intoning deceptively poetic ("Bad Moon Rising") and even
political ("Fortunate Son") lyrics.
Creedence split up in 1972.
Fogerty at first confused his considerable following by releasing an
album of covers, on which he played all the instruments, under the name
the Blue Ridge Rangers in 1973. This was followed by a formal solo
album, John Fogerty, in 1975, and then silence for more than nine years
while the artist worked out business problems with Creedence's old
label. But Fogerty returned at the end of 1984 with a Top Ten single,
"The Old Man Down the Road," and a number one album, Centerfield. Eye of
the Zombie was a less successful follow-up in 1986. Following the
failure of Eye of the Zombie, Fogerty went into seclusion. For the next
11 years he remained quiet, finally resurfacing in 1997 with Blue Moon
Swamp; the live Premonition appeared just a year later. In 2005 he
released the Long Road Home: The Ultimate John Fogerty/Creedence
Collection and its accompanying DVD Long Road Home: In Concert, the
first compilation of its kind to feature both CCR classics and Fogerty's
solo work. After a number of concert appearances, Fogerty released
Revival in 2007.
