creedence clearwater revival
on february 19, 1987, at the palomino club (north hollywood) in los angeles, fogerty broke his self-imposed 1972 ban on performing ccr hits. bob dylan and george harrison had joined him onstage, admonishing "if you don't, the whole world's gonna think 'proud mary' is tina turner's song." at a 1987 independence day benefit concert for vietnam war veterans, fogerty finally ran through the list of ccr hits, beginning with "born on the bayou" and ending with "proud mary". in 1986 he also released his second warner bros. album "eye of the zombie". he retreated from music again in the late 1980s but returned in 1997 with the grammy-winning "blue moon swamp". fogerty still tours frequently and performs ccr classics alongside solo material.
