John Fogerty

You're going along, you're just plunking along clubs, whatever, learning a chord here and there, learning something off a record, hoping you have a career in music because you like music.

Because my mother had kind of pointed out songwriters, it put me in that realm.

It made me at least realize that that was one of the functions of music.

That's another story I could tell you.

I don't know if you want to hear that.

You don't know until it happens.

Yeah, you don't know.

You know, until Willie Mays one day did something on the field.

Right.

He didn't know.

Right.

And there was a point, as I alluded to, I've read about, DeRocher knew when he saw him.

And Willie wasn't so sure yet.

Yeah.

It's very cool to me now.

I don't even know if I saw the movie at the time it came out.

That was during the time I was still, you know, away from music and kind of angry and pissed off about my situation.

So when something would get done with my music, it kind of made me mad because nobody asked me.

I wrote all the songs from Credence.

Wow.
