You should play with real musicians the best music comes from real people interacting with each other.
John Fogerty
Sometimes I think life is just a rodeo, the trick is to ride and make it to the bell.
John Fogerty
My papa said son don't let the man getcha and do what he done to me.

I was deluding myself that the song was almost not important, but I think the real thing that was happening was almost like self-hypnosis or mediation. The guitar lick was the transcendental key that unlocked my brain. It freed me. And then it all became easy. It's funny now, because I've had times when it wasn't easy.
John Fogerty
When I'm standing at the Pearly Gates, I want to say to God, 'Don't look at the records. Look at my family. I'm much prouder about that part.'

Other people want a career or success because they think that will help them find their personal life somewhere. I've done it the other way around. What I have is what everybody else is looking for. I know I've got it made. I know I'm a very lucky man. That came first. Then the music and the career just kind of took care of themselves.
John Fogerty
I’m like a twenty two year old kid in a new band trying to get noticed and break through, because the vast majority of people have never seen me play live.
John Fogerty
In those days, I didn't know how guys like Clapton and Beck were getting that searing blues lead sound, so I developed my style to be rhythmic and chord-based, with simple lead lines that you could almost hum.
John Fogerty
With the Michael Moore movie, certain conservative talk show hosts call him un-American. Him and anybody else who says anything about the war... To question your country's policy, especially in a war that kills people, is definitely not un-American. It's probably the most patriotic thing you can do.
John Fogerty
The Telecaster doesn't really sound that good for the kind of rock and roll that a lot of people played.
John Fogerty
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump and run again. You got to hide-hidey-hide, the old man is down the road.
John Fogerty
I usually destroy unreleased material. It has a way of coming back to haunt you.
John Fogerty
I've also become much more the musician I've always wanted to be.
John Fogerty
I'm much more energetic now you might say live performance is my mission.
John Fogerty
And I now think that Stratocasters and Telecasters are way cool.

There's a bad moon on the rise.
