Creedence Clearwater Revival Wikipedia

Creedence Clearwater Revisited is an American rock band formed in 1995 by bassist Stu Cook and drummer Doug 'Cosmo' Clifford, former members of Creedence Clearwater Revival, to play live versions of that band's music.[1]

Overview[edit]

Much of Creedence Clearwater Revival's music had been written and arranged by John Fogerty, who has not participated in Creedence Clearwater Revisited.[2] Fogerty had exercised artistic control over the earlier band,[2] and he sued to try to stop the newer 'Revisited' band from using its similar name, saying the name would confuse the public into thinking it was a continuation of the earlier 'Revival' band. However, his lawsuit was ultimately unsuccessful.[1] The fourth member of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Tom Fogerty, had died in 1990 before the new band was formed.[2]

History[edit]

The band was formed in 1995. Stu Cook bought a house in Lake Tahoe near Doug Clifford's home and the two began regularly jamming and decided to form a band, despite Clifford considering himself retired at the time.[3] Cook said 'We never really had any intention of playing for the public, but a friend wanted to promote a couple of concerts. We got talked into it, but didn't know how it would go over.'[4] The duo contacted John Fogerty 'out of courtesy' to invite him to reunite with them but Fogerty, who at the time was refusing to play Creedence music, declined the offer.[3]

In 1996, the group increased the scope of their reunion, playing 190 shows over the course of the year before slowing to 100[5] and settling on 75 annual performances for around 15 years[5] at the behest of Clifford.[3] As the group passed their 20th anniversary, their annual touring dates have been reduced to around 50.[5] The band has toured North America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Asia.[4]

In 1997, legal injunction by John Fogerty forced the group to change its name to 'Cosmo's Factory', a name it had earlier considered (which had been the name of Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1970 album), but the courts later ruled in Cook's and Clifford's favor.

In 1998, the band released Recollection, an album composed of live versions of Creedence Clearwater Revival songs. Recollection was certified Platinum by the RIAA in 2007.[6]

In September 2017, Clifford ruled out any chance of Cook and himself reuniting with Fogerty, stating 'It would have been great 20, 25 years ago. It’s way too late now.'[7]

In April 2019, Clifford and Cook announced they would disband Creedence Clearwater Revisited and retire from touring following a farewell tour later that year.[8]
