	Bone of contention on #86. When the song was originally released, it was credited to the "Blue Ridge Rangers", not the artist listed. It was a pseudonym, and years afterward it was credit to just the person named in your quiz, but at the time it wasn't. So you should probably list the answer as "Blue Ridge Rangers (a.k.a. John Fogerty)/blue ridge rangers/john fogerty/fogerty")

	Also, please accept "Allman Brothers" or even "Allmans" as well as the answer provided. I believe GFR was just credited as GR at that point. "Masterpiece" should be singular. Otherwise, keep 'em comin'; one day I'll beat rockgolf.

	@rockgolf and @caramba, thanks as usual for your corrections, and as usual, anyone else with suggestions, please come out and do so, I always like to learn more about musical history this way. (Example: John Fogerty went under that pseudonym to distance himself from CCR, meaning the breakup must have been especially messy for them to have had such a short but successful career together.)

	@alex, great job as usual. I was actually going to suggest that Fogerty shouldn't be accepted at all -- it was a one-man band, and I don't think anyone would expect "Ondrasik" (sp?) to be accepted as an alternative for Five For Fighting, or similarly for "bands" like Owl City, Cat Power, A Fine Frenzy, etc. But, I'll defer to Da Editor on this one. You do deserve major props however for recognizing that Edward Bear was a group, not a person -- I tried just "Bear" at first and was pleasantly surprised to see it rejected. Well done.

	@Alex: The Fogerty story is nasty. All those great songs that John Fogerty wrote for CCR? (Proud Mary, Bad Moon Rising, Down on the Corner, Fortunate Son, Looking Out My Back Door, etc.) He sold the royalties right to the band's manager for what in retrospect was a pittance. He gets no royalties from the songs he wrote. They go to Saul Zanetz, the guy who took home the Best Picture Oscar for producing The English Patient. For decades, he refused to perform his own material live. In fact, Zanetz sued him because his solo hit "The Old Man Down the Road" sounded too similar to CCR's "Green River", which Fogerty himself wrote. So when he went solo, he decided to record a bunch of other people's songs instead, including "Jambalaya" written by Hank Williams back in the early fifties.

	Great story, Rockgolf. Although I think it was "Run Through the Jungle" that he was accused of plagiarizing. They do sound pretty similar (in fact, it might be fair to say most all Fogerty songs, great as they are, have a similar sound). My favorite part of the story is that he brought his guitar up to the witness stand. I always joked with my brother that if I'd been on the jury, I'd have made him run through a whole set.

	I think Old Man Down Road was about Zanetz himself, hence the lawsuit?

	strags11:	Mar 4th, 2011 at 04:01 GMT		1 point
	No, Old Man wasn't about Zanetz, but the final song on that (original) album was called Zanz Can't Dance. Zanz was part of a band of traveling minstrels/theives who would pickpocket people who'd come to watch their act. The chorus went "Zanz can't dance but he'll take your money/Watch him or he'll steal you blind." Oops, did I forget to mention that Zanz was in fact a dancing, uh...pig. Zanetz, in a classic You're So Vain moment, thought the song was about him. Go figure. Anyway, he filed a defamation suit against Fogerty and his record company, and the album was quickly recalled from store shelves, but not before it sold a ton of copies (I have one). A new pressing substituted a different final track.

	rockgolf - IMHO you are unquestionably the guru of all things trivial about R&R, but I know for a fact you made one slip here, albeit a minor one--the lawsuit over "Old Man Down the Road" was due to its similarities to "Run Through the Jungle" and "Born on the Bayou" (which, not coincidentally I suppose, sound an awful lot like each other), and not "Green River".

	Alex - It seems the further back we go, the more of these artists you remember incorrectly. I mean, after all, it couldn't be I who is remembering them wrong. Thanks for continuing to put all the work into creating these quizzes. They're among my favorites on the site.
