Subject: RE: Bad Moon Rising - Katrina casualty?
Makes sense, Joe. And what Muskratpete said too. Could be that certain radio stations (or related media moguls) have temporarily dropped the song from playlists. That's what happened in Canada with the Hip's New Orleans is Sinking

Looks like John Fogerty re-signed with Fantasy Records just last week and is soon to release a "career retrospective album" featuring his classics with CCR and on through his solo career. "Bad Moon Rising" is second on the track list for the new album. Maybe that's why the song's in the limelight right now?

Things do appear to be looking up for John Fogerty though, compared with the days when he was being sued for *plagiarizing* his own songs (?!?)   Migod, I'm glad I don't have any more experience with the commercial music industry than I do, or I'd be even more jaded than I am already!
