The Blue Ridge Rangers - Blue Ridge Mountain Blues b/w Have Thine Own Way, Lord (1972)
As CCR was coming to an end, Fogerty began working on a solo album of country & western covers. Fogerty played all of the instruments on the album, which was released in 1973 as “The Blue Ridge Rangers”.
Upon its initial release by Fantasy Records in 1973, the album was credited to "The Blue Ridge Rangers" with no mention of Fogerty on the cover. Fogerty chose to do this in order to distance himself from his Creedence legacy.
"Blue Ridge Mountain Blues" was the first of five songs released as a single from the album.
A - Blue Ridge Mountain Blues (2:30)
Arranged, Produced and Performed by John Fogerty
B - Have Thine Own Way, Lord (2:59)
