(187) JOHN FOGERTY'S EARLY ROCK N ROLL - THE BLUE VELVETS

John Fogerty? Well friends, I loved what John did with his band Creedence Clearwater Revival, but I want to tell you about John as an early rock and roller. Earlier in this blog I talked about Jimmy Seals of Seals and Crofts being a member of the "Tequila" song band, the Champs, a band that was named after Gene Autry's horse when they were on his lable. John had a band called The Blue Velvets. They had a career that spanned from about 1959 to the early 1960's.Here is "Have You Ever Been Lonely" on a YouTube video presentation. I'll be talking about John Fogerty again later in this blog.  (Video removed 2012)

VIDEO REPLACED SEPTEMBER 2013 with different song.  Tommy is John's Brother who eventually left Creedence.
