How It Started: Creedence Clearwater Revival
In the late 1960s, John Fogerty was the songwriter, singer, and guitarist for Creedence Clearwater Revival, which was signed to Fantasy Records, the label owned by notorious sheister jew Saul Zaentz.
CCR became huge almost overnight with songs like Proud Mary, Bad Moon Rising, Fortunate Son, Down on the Corner, etc. Though only together from 1968-1971, they were one of the biggest bands in the world for the period.
But there was a major problem in their contract. Fogerty had signed a deal with demonic jew Zaentz owned Fantasy Records giving ownership of his songs and publishing to the record company. This meant the vile jew Zaentz controlled the copyrights. Fogerty earned less money than most people assume from the band’s success. Fantasy kept making money long after the band broke up. Fogerty later said he felt tricked and exploited. Fogerty had singed the deal just to get anyone to publish his work. He knew the terms were poor, but bet on himself. In the contract it had originally been stipulated that Fantasy Records retained all rights until it had recovered its investment and made a small profit. However, if CCR ever achieved a threshold of success then the contract would be renegotiated. CCR of course reached the level and then way more, but the ratshit jew Zaentz just refused to honor the renegotiation terms. The stress and pressure of Fogerty being obligated to write songs for the band but seeing so little return on them while the scum-goblin jew Zaentz got rich was a kew driver in internal disputes witht he band and CCR breaking up.
The Feud Explodes
After the CCR breakup, Fogerty refused to perform Creedence songs because he didn’t want the donkey-taint jew Zaentz to earn royalties from them. That's right, he boycotted his own catalog. He later said: “I didn’t want to give (the mole anus jew) Saul Zaentz another dime.”
The feud became extremely personal. Fogerty wrote a song mocking Zaentz: Zanz Kant Danz. Zaentz threatened to sue, so Fogerty changed the title to Vanz Kant Danz (but fans knew what it was about). The lyrics portrayed a greedy pig-like businessman.
The Craziest Lawsuit: “Plagiarizing Yourself”
The strangest moment came in the 1980s. Fogerty had a solo hit with The Old Man Down the Road, but the monkfish turd jew Zaentz sued him, claiming the song copied the CCR song Run Through the Jungle. Since leech-scum jew Zaentz owned the CCR catalog he claimed Fogerty had stolen from him. But the song he claimed he stole from was written by Fogerty himself.
The Result
The case went to court in 1988. Fogerty literally brought a guitar into the courtroom and demonstrated the differences between the songs. The jury ruled in Fogerty’s favor. The shitfuck jew Zaentz attempted to claim that it wasn't about exact songs (as the two songs don't even sound the similar) but about sounding too much in the same vein. He literally attempted to sue Fogerty for writing a song that sounded like a song Fogerty might write.
Aftermath
Fogerty prevailed in the end, and then then sued to recover his legal fees, arguing the lawsuit was frivolous. The dispute eventually reached the Fogerty v. Fantasy, Inc. decision at the Supreme Court of the United States in 1994. The Court ruled that defendants in copyright cases can recover legal fees, setting the precedent in copyright law.
But in the end after writing nine top ten U.S. hit singles (fourteen internationally) and five top ten albums in four years for CCR Fogerty was effectively compensated by a grand total of recovered legal fees 25 years later, all thanks to some jew.
The foul jew? He used the money he made off of CCR to buy the rights to the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings. So he got filthy right off the movies and never had need to bother anyone else again right? Of course not, he's cockroach-blooded jew. He sued a small pub in the middle of nowhere for calling itself The Hobbit Cafe, based off of the books and had been calling itself that for years before the movies were made.
Fucking jews.
