John Fogerty has announced a new album, 'Legacy: The Creedence Clearwater Revival Years', featuring rerecorded classics from Creedence Clearwater Revival, to be released on August 22. This project was inspired by Fogerty's recent acquisition of majority publishing rights for the band's songs. He feels the new recordings bring a fresh perspective, with increased clarity and depth. Taylor Swift's own experiences in reclaiming her music motivated him to pursue this endeavor, although Fogerty acknowledges he may never own the original masters. He expressed a desire to label it as 'Taylor's Version' to honor her influence.
I'm still kind of waiting to hear feedback... But the first five or six people I've talked to who have listened to it all say it sounds 'fresher.'
I wanted to call it Taylor's Version. I lobbied very much to the record company... There's probably no chance in the world I will ever have any part of the ownership of the old masters.
