American Boys
John Fogerty and Willie Nelson
It would be difficult to imagine two artists who better embody the spirit of authentic Americana than John Fogertyand Willie Nelson. Each has established an indelible imprint, from the relentless refrains that framed Fogerty's Credence Clearwater Revival hits to the rugged, backwoods drawl Nelson navigated. Likewise, their careers paralleled a time when rebellion was the rule. It found Fogerty voicing the sentiments of a disenchanted generation via "Fortunate Son" and "Bad Moon Rising." Meanwhile, Nelson — the longhaired, pot-smoking country boy — was creating music that dared to defy Nashville's standards and stereotypes. Today, having reached senior citizen status, both men continue to reclaim the music that first defined them. Now in his 70s, Nelson embraces all chapters of the great American songbook with his easy, unassuming style. And with the 60s as much his age group as his era, Fogerty's much closer to "Center Field" than ever before.
John Fogerty and Willie Nelson perform on Saturday, July 22, at Sound Advice Amphitheatre, 601-7 Sansbury's Way, West Palm Beach. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Tickets cost $25 to $59.50. Call 561-793-0445.
