Now, a reunion of the four is impossible because Tom Fogerty passed away in 1990 due to complications from back surgery.Īnd, the possibility of Clifford and Cook reuniting with John Fogerty with amiable results is somewhat as likely as Obama and Trump going on a kayaking expedition together.įortunately for fans of Creedence Clearwater Revival, the band’s music has been kept alive through Creedence Clearwater Revisited - a group put together by Cook and Clifford 24 years ago. It immediately became obvious that there would never be a revival of Creedence Clearwater Revival featuring the four original members - rhythm guitarist Tom Fogerty, bassist Stu Cook, drummer Doug Clifford and guitarist/vocalist John Fogerty. In 1982, the band dissolved in what was a rock-and-roll version of one of the nastiest divorces you could ever imagine. The four musicians from the San Francisco Bay area were responsible for a huge number of hits, including classic rock standards such as “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain?,” “Bad Moon Rising,” “Who’ll Stop the Rain?,” and “Lookin’ Out My Back Door.” On March 8, the band is headlining a show at the Xcite Center at Parx Casino (2999 Street Road, Bensalem, 88, ).īack in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Creedence Clearwater Revival was a huge band.

And, in recent times, the band’s area concerts have been hosted by safe places to bet.Īround a year-and-a-half ago, Creedence Clearwater Revisited performed at a casino in downtown Philadelphia. Fans of music from the late 1960s know that a concert by Creedence Clearwater Revisited is a safe bet.
