Can't agree really. If you listen to John playing bass/drums on " Centerfield" and Kenny Aranoff et al on his later albums the style is quite different. The three others in CCR perfectly supported John's craftsmanship.
Thank you! Really interesting. I would also like to hear about Stu's thoughts and experiences playing with the Don Harrison Band and Russell Dashiell in the mid 70s and with Tom Fogerty in 1974-5
The main backstabber of John F was the bassist Stu Cook. That was the one that insisted to John that the binding contract of JF to Fantasy Records "Was good, you should sign it". Then later on, when john noticed the contract was stealing his songs and slaving him, and underpaying for record sales, and more, John refused to play with Stu Cook for lying to him. Stu Cook took all the JF songs away via the contract to Fantasy Records, found another singer and toured all USA with a bogus band and singer with the songs he stole from JF. When JF confronted him, he only said "I dont care about the music, i just want the money", its ours now. Dam Dirty Stu Cook. You were lucky nobody shot you for that. They should.. In Latin America it has happened a lot. You cannot steal and backstab like in USA and not taste bullets
I think from Stu's actions when he went running to Saul Zaentz with a copy of John Fogerty's "Centrefield " album, saying " You need to listen to this , Fogerty's ripping of CCR you should sue him ", that he was a bit of a dog, but I never knew he was a basset hound as mentioned in your description

Learn the name of the band next time.
Did he say Clerence Clearwater?
My condolences for you being a Rolling Stones fan
You must be a Taylor Swift fan.
The real talent in ccr was john fogerty, he could have gotten anybody to play bass, and the music would have been just good.

The guys in the band really stuck it up John’s ass…what a shame jealousy killed this band and then their friendship.

I saw the revisted band version and they did a fantastic job. I really enjoyed that concert.
