Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) disbanded in 1972 after a period of immense success, but despite their breakup, the band members were not completely estranged from each other. While they never officially reunited for a public concert after parting ways, they did occasionally jam together privately. One notable instance occurred in 1976 at a session for the documentary “The Last Waltz,” which was directed by Martin Scorsese and chronicled The Band’s final concert.

In this jam, CCR’s members—John Fogerty, Tom Fogerty, Stu Cook, and Doug Clifford—reunited briefly but did not perform a full-fledged concert. The gathering was not part of any major musical project, but rather a private, informal session. John Fogerty, who had been the primary driving force behind CCR, had already begun his successful solo career by this time, and the other members had pursued their own musical paths. The tension between the band members, especially between John and the others, was still palpable, and this short reunion showed that while they could share musical moments, the underlying issues that had caused the band’s breakup remained unresolved.

Despite this rare moment of jamming, the band members never fully reconciled, and there were no further public performances or official reunions. Over the years, the story of CCR’s fractured dynamic has remained a key part of the band’s legacy. John Fogerty, for instance, has spoken in interviews about his frustrations with the other members of the band and their management, which played a large part in the group’s disbanding. The finality of their breakup left a lasting mark on the music world, and their relatively brief career in the late ’60s and early ’70s continued to captivate fans and musicians alike.

Though CCR did not reunite for major performances after 1972, the band’s influence remained powerful, and many of their songs, such as “Bad Moon Rising,” “Fortunate Son,” and “Proud Mary,” continue to be staples of classic rock radio. The band’s legacy lives on through their music, even if their internal relationships never fully healed. The brief jams they had, along with their iconic recordings, remain as a testament to the group’s undeniable talent and the complexity of their relationships.
