    Hope that release date is wrong... announcements said it would be released in "early 2013," but I wouldn't consider the end of May especially early. Oh well. Looking forward to hearing about the details, pretty exciting. We already know the Zac Brown Band is doing an unannounced song on there, but who knows what other surprises will be there?


    There is an amazing group of artists who have joined Fogerty in making this record � bringing their distinctive style to his songs. There are additional touches being added to the recording, including some new original songs and notable surprises. Check back here for further updates!


    That was a post made on John's website after the postponement (and track listing) was announced. So we should expect to hear details about NEW SONGS and probably the "notable surprises" are NEW DUET PARTNERS.

    Are the new songs instrumentals, or do they have lyrics?

    I hear previous track of Born on the bayou. The voice of JCF is phenomenal

    There is clearly a huge promotional blitz for this album. Ads with the new album cover keep popping up everywhere, even on huge sites like Youtube and LA Times. Props to Vanguard for doing this, hopefully it generates some added excitement.

    But I can't say I agree with the decision to make "Born on the Bayou" the first single. It's a solid track, but in my opinion it's too similar to the original (untouchable) CCR version to be the lead single, and Kid Rock doesn't add that much to the new version. I would've put out Someday Never Comes as the first single... not many people know the CCR original, so they'll assume the new version is the best... plus Dawes is known for its beautiful harmonies, so I'm sure the public would eat this song up.

    Here's a cool promotional idea: for every week leading up to the new album release, stream one new track online. Springsteen did that last year (on sites like NPR, MTV, etc.) and it created a nice buzz for the new album. Just a thought...

    The new songs do have lyrics.

    It's funny you brought that up - Born on the Bayou is actually not the first single. It is just a fun little tease we wanted to put out during the Super Bowl, given the whole New Orleans connection. The first single has yet to be released!
