John Fogerty

He would have been born at that point.

It was probably 1949, the story I'm relating, and he would have been born in 1875.

I mean, it's mind-boggling to think that.

But my favorite memory thing, other than the fact that that whole place inspired my song, Green River.

All the little parts are in Green River.

But one of the things, my parents had this old Ford, old green Ford.

And they'd be driving along at night up there.

I guess they were more happy or something there.

And I remember sitting between them.

It was just a big couch, the front seat.

And they were singing songs in the dark.

And they were singing like By the Light of the Silvery Moon or Babyface and harmonizing.

One was taking the melody and the other was harmonizing.

The reason I know is because I'd sat there and I'm probably three, four, five years old, right in there.

I said, what are you guys doing?

Because I knew the melody, but I hear two notes.

What are you doing?

And they explained they were harmonizing.

And it was just the coolest thing.

And it was such a happy time.
