in 1964 i was 10 years old and the first song i ever rocked to was dc5 bits and pieces! the beat man the beat! i love this dc5 rendition and also joans cover of bits and pieces,wow! makes me cry to relive my youth.thanks youtube tom hanks rr hall of fame joan fogerty etc.exc!
Some of these comments are so damn SAD...yes pubs are great, I have seen Mellencamp live and he was fantastic...so by the way was Andre Rieu, Pavarotti and the rolling stones, Springsteen and Meatloaf.... and SO is this....I enjoy it all....to all the negative authors...switch to something else to listen to...it is that simple...why write negativity, there is enough of that in this world already.
The sad part of this is that the DC5 were denied induction (allegedly the DC5 got more votes than Grandmaster Flash but Jann Wenner overrlued the committee) the year before when the original DC 5 vocalist (Mike Smith, IIRC) was still alive.
Correct. But he didn't "steal" him. Kenny has played drums for Melissa Etheridge, Smashing Pumpkins before he played with JF. He's a helluva drummer...one of the best. But I don't think Fogerty exactly stole him.
There must not be any hard feelings. Mellencamp has him listed in his top friends on myspace.
THIS IS ROCK AND ROLL!!!

most of these "get togethers" are farcical and great artists no doubt cringe when they see the playback...

Worst version ever, I hope they drag Mellencamp, Fogerty, and Joan Jett into an alley and beat them senseless for butchering such a great 60's song

Get over it. It was a mindless song to begin with, and this performance is excellent for unrehearsed.

sugarmarie1980 3 years ago
He did though. Kenny Aronoff used to drum for Mellencamp. He is now Fogertys drummer.
Ryomou1988 3 years ago
Correct. But he didn't "steal" him. Kenny has played drums for Melissa Etheridge, Smashing Pumpkins before he played with JF. He's a helluva drummer...one of the best. But I don't think Fogerty exactly stole him.
There must not be any hard feelings. Mellencamp has him listed in his top friends on myspace.
sugarmarie1980 3 years ago
heh, i only meant it in a friendly way. Kenny's awesome, there aren't hard feelings between the too. Saw Kenny last week with Fogerty.
Ryomou1988 3 years ago
That's good. Too many responders on here are so vile. You're right, Kenny is the bomb!
Fogerty is awesome too! We called that tour, Fogerty and Mellencamp, the summer of love here in Mellenland.
sugarmarie1980 3 years ago
Both their voices go incredibly well together.
Ryomou1988 3 years ago
true 100% i know so much about kenny he is my favorite drummer. i have one of his sticks that he used at the orpheum thearter drumming for fogerty
