Fogerty And Springsteen Together

John Fogerty
Ex-Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty will release a covers collection dubbed The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again, on Sept. 1 through Fortunate Son/Verve Forecast.

The disc features guest appearances from Bruce Springsteen and The Eagles' Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmit. Fogerty is accompanied by a band including drummer Kenny Aronoff, guitarist Herb Pedersen, Jodie Kenny and country singer/songwriter Buddy Miller. Springsteen duets with Fogerty on his cover of the Everly Brothers' "When Will I Be Loved."

"The songs on The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again are mostly songs I have carried with me for a lifetime," Fogerty said in a statement. "They are songs that influenced me and helped me for a lifetime. There is something very American about these songs and the original arrangements and also their musical setting here, on this album. That musical place where these songs reside is where I go to create my own music."

Fogerty released a covers set called The Blue Ridge Rangers — which was also his first solo album — in 1973. It included covers of songs by Hank Williams, Merle Haggard and others.
