Rightly called the saddest story in rock 'n' roll history, this Creedence biography--newly updated with stories from band members, producers, business associates, close friends, and families--recounts the tragic and triumphant tale of one of America's most beloved bands. Hailed as the great American rock band from 1968 to 1971, Creedence Clearwater Revival captured the imaginations of a generation with classic hits like "Proud Mary," "Down on the Corner," "Green River," "Born on the Bayou," and "Who'll Stop the Rain." Mounting tensions among bandmates over vibrant guitarist and lead vocalist John Fogerty's creative control led to the band's demise.

Queen Branwen finds her world once again turned upside down as Pictish raiders harry the shores of her kingdom. Rallying her people once more, she must face her most dangerous foe yet, the Queen of the Picts. Ruthless and cunning, the Pictish Queen turns the Welsh against each other in a bloody civil war, and Branwen must attempt to stop her before her country threatens to tear itself apart. All the while Branwen is heavy with child, and finds her young son's footsteps dogged by a mysterious assassin. Branwen must somehow defeat the Picts and save her people before the Pictish Queen and a mysterious assassin threaten to destroy their lives from the inside out.

Although the characters and some of the place names are fictional, the physical environment, the historical details, and the saga of the Welsh people is real"--

These are lyrics that I wrote in my youth, in the 80's and 90's. I was part of the underground scene and travelled all over scandinavia. I wrote lyrics and played bass in Katarakt, The God, Nailgun Portrait and some psychadelic blues bands, but I have forgotten their names. This is, bascically, juvenilia. But some of these lyrics still work, I think. If you want to put music to my lyrics, please contact me. Contact information is on the backside of the book.
