Next Time we tune the Way-Back dial to Bad Company John Fogerty is best known for his time with the classic rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR), but he has done some great solo stuff as well. Fogerty has a rare distinction of being named on Rolling Stone magazine's list of 100 Greatest Guitarists at #40 and the list of 100 Greatest Singers at #72. John's solo career started in 1973 under the name "The Blue Ridge Rangers" The rest of his solo albums/CD's that followed had very distinctive sounds of hard rock, swamp rock, blues and country with a tiny bit of Reggae thrown in. He was nominated for the Best Rock Solo Vocal Performance Grammy for the song "Change in the Weather," which he recorded for The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again in 2010. Despite his falling out with the other members of CCR, John Fogerty is the guts of classic rock for me no matter what he sings. Here are my top 10 favorite songs of John Fogerty's solo career.
