John Fogerty
"The Old Man Down The Road"

Released in 1985

John Fogerty's first album since 1975 was a doozy. The former lead singer of Creedence Clearwater Revival burst back on to the charts with songs that evoked the spirit of that classic band which didn't seem out of place on MTV at all. It was good to hear new music from him.
