John Fogerty has had a lowish profile and he went years without playing Creedence songs because of a pissing match he had with their manager.
I thought it was a legal issue. Didn't he have some now-fabled testimony about only knowing how to sound like John Fogerty, ergo he couldn't be infringing on his own copyright?
That was a lot of beer and bong rips ago...could have that all wrong.

Yeah, he battled the record company for years.

Maybe it was both - legal issues and a pissing match with management?
I do remember reading somewhere in the mid/late 80s that Bruce Springsteen told Fogerty that he had to start performing Creedence songs again or else people would think Tina Turner wrote Proud Mary. So Fogerty dipped into the CCR catalog at Farm Aid or some other big benefit concert.
