Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty turns the big 8-0 on May 28, and he’s planning to celebrate his milestone birthday with a special concert. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer will perform that evening at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. https://americansongwriter.com/the-old-man-down-at-the-beacon-john-fogerty-announces-special-80th-birthday-concert-in-new-york-city/ EDIT: John Fogerty does a Taylor Swift and remakes his Creedence Clearwater Revival classics To celebrate owning his songs again, Fogerty is releasing "John's Version" recordings – listen to the first three now https://www.loudersound.com/bands-artists/john-fogerty--legacy-the-creedence-clearwater-revival-years John Fogerty Is Re-Recording Creedence Classics. We Asked Him Why On Legacy, the 80-year-old rocker re-creates songs like "Proud Mary" and "Bad Moon Rising," note for note: “I wanted to call it Taylor’s Version" https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/john-fogerty-re-records-creedence-songs-legacy-album-1235339574/ Say what you will, but I think it's obvious that at least parts of the original CCR lead vocals have been used on the three songs that we can listen to. Sounds like he overdubbed new vocals onto the original. Was that the idea? ??? Maybe some AI used? "Have you ever seen the rain" sounds like the original with some new parts punched-in. I wonder if they used AI because his voice on the "new" parts sounds almost exactly like the original. And since it seems like he lost quite a bit lot of edge in his voice during the last decade - as we can hear on live recordings - I can't believe that this is how he sounds without any post-production-work done.
