John Fogerty Wrote a Song for Everyone

I dig John Fogerty. Whether he's writing and performing with Creedence Clearwater Revival or as a solo act, the guy puts out some fine material. In fact, he wrote a song for everyone, as evidenced by his latest release, Wrote a Song for Everyone.

John's hottest classics (and a couple new ones too) are recorded by some of the biggest names in music on Wrote a Song for Everyone, putting a new spin on the tunes and breathing new life into something that was never dead to begin with. John performs on the songs as well, creating a unique collaborative effort that is truly a masterpiece for fans of John's music.

Some of the stand out tracks for me are Who'll Stop the Rain featuring Bob Seger, Fortunate Son featuring the Foo Fighters (Bob Seger Previously covered this one), Have You Ever Seen the Rain featuring Alan Jackson, Born on the Bayou featuring Kid Rock, and Lodi featuring John's sons Shane and Tyler.

The whole CD is a good one, full of great songs, outstanding performances, and the foot-stomping swamp- boogie ear candy John Fogerty has always brought to the table.
