One of the most pleasant surprises of 1997 was the return of John Fogerty. After releasing the eventual Grammy-winning BLUE MOON SWAMP, his first recording in over a decade, the subsequent tour found the CCR founder sounding timeless and having a great time to boot. All this and more are found on PREMONITION, a live album from the tour that ably demonstrates how Fogerty still has a freshness to his playing not found in players half his age despite being away for so long.
To the delight of many fans, Fogerty broke out a batch of Creedence material after disavowing it due to legal wranglings that stretched out over years. To his credit, Fogerty bypassed the usual greatest hits approach, choosing instead to mix in a number of earlier solo numbers ("Centerfield," "Rockin` All Over The World") with material from his latest record ("Swamp River Days," "Hot Rod Heart"). Most poignant was the unabashed affection showed to his wife as he introduced "Joy Of My Life," a number not only overflowing with spousal love, but a confidence belonging to someone who`s finally back in the creative saddle and raring to go.
