"As John Fogerty begins talking about his new album, a bemused smile comes over his face. “I wanted to call it Taylor’s Version,” he says during a recent visit to New York. “I lobbied very much to the record company.”"

Should be interesting. As a lifelong fan of CCR and his solo work I'm excited to hear the difference in 20 something John and 80 year old John.
