Remember when John Fogerty was sued for sounding like himself?
Forgerty, who wrote/sang/played “Run Through the Jungle” when he was in Creedence Clearwater Revival was sued by their label, Fantasy Records, when he recorded a solo track called “The Old Man Down the Road”.
Fogerty won. As the article notes: “The two-week trial featured Fogerty taking the witness stand with guitar in hand to explain that yes, the two songs may have sounded somewhat similar, but they were both variations on his signature “swamp rock” style. Simply put, of course two John Fogerty songs sounded the same.”
Sad!
