Though only together for a few years, Creedence Clearwater Revival captured the imagination of a generation with leader John Fogerty's catchy songwriting, vibrant guitar playing and strong vocals.
It was not an easy ride to fame; Fogerty's creative leadership was resented by the other band members, and ill-conceived contracts with their management and record company left the group burdened with crippling artistic obligations and relatively little to show for their work.
This book tells it all through interviews with the surviving band members, their managers, producers and family.
