Creedence Clearwater Revival vs. The Grateful Dead
29. maj 2013
“Yeah, I smoked a little pot. I think my bandmates smoked quite a bit more pot. I had rules: never do that when we’re recording, never do that when we’re playing. To me it was a competition. You’d have the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane talking like: ‘We don’t want to be successful, maaaaan.’ […] For one thing I wasn’t sure I believed them and for another, why would I go to all this trouble and only sell one record to my mom? I wasn’t embarrassed that I was ambitious. We wanted to be the best we could be.”
John Fogerty til The Guardian i dag.
