John Fogerty has been posting videos on Instagram in which he talks about some of the 20 Creedence Clearwater Revival songs he’s re-recorded for Legacy: The Creedence Clearwater Revival Years, which will be released on August 22nd. The latest is for “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” which he says is “a melodic American classic that probably could be in the Great American Songbook.” Fogerty will be talking about and spinning songs from the album this Wednesday night in London at the EartH Theatre in the Hackney section of town. He’ll also play some acoustic tunes with his sons Shane and Tyler, who are in his band. Fogerty also posted a Father's Day memory of his dad, Galen Robert Fogerty, writing, "My father was a dreamer. The world needs dreamers. I loved the memories of my mom and dad singing and harmonizing in the car. They loved music. He was also a writer. I think it’s definitely in the genes... I sure love being a dad. I’m traveling to Europe to celebrate with you all, kids in tow. Keep on living the dream!"
