I thought they must be from the Bayou country given their songs, but it turns out Golden Staters from Bakersfield aren't much different.
I liked Fogarty even better when he went solo with Blue Moon Swamp and Revival. He's a genius.

I was born in 1969 and remember hearing them a lot when I was young. I always loved Fogerty's primal-sounding voice. I've never heard another voice quite like that. They do sound like they're from deep in the bayou or the woods. You know, I've never even heard anybody imitate John Fogerty. Hard to do.

...and I would like to see one, but I've never heard of one. I've never even heard anyone cover them.
