LEGENDARY MOMENT REBORN: Watch John Fogerty Break 15-Year Silence on “Proud Mary” – and the Music Icon Who Dared Him to Do It!

LOS ANGELES, CA – It’s been 36 years since a memorable night in 1987 when John Fogerty, the legendary frontman of Creedence Clearwater Revival, broke his 15-year silence on performing “Proud Mary” live – and it was all thanks to music icon Bob Dylan.

The historic moment took place at a benefit concert for the Vietnam Veterans of America, where Dylan, who was also performing, insisted that Fogerty play the classic hit.

Fogerty had avoided playing “Proud Mary” and other CCR songs since the band’s breakup in 1972, due to a bitter dispute with his record label, Fantasy Records. However, Dylan’s persistence eventually won Fogerty over.

“I was hesitant at first, but Bob’s enthusiasm was infectious,” Fogerty recalled in an interview. “It felt like the right moment to revisit the song and reconnect with the fans.”

The crowd went wild as Fogerty took the stage and launched into the iconic opening riff of “Proud Mary”. The performance marked a turning point in Fogerty’s career, paving the way for his eventual reunion with his CCR bandmates and a renewed focus on his music.

Watch the historic performance of “Proud Mary” and relive the magic of that unforgettable night.
