My Morning Jacket are a big deal, a total festival-crossover band, and your dad probably already likes them. But it’s still a bit weird to see a network newsmagazine doing a big piece on them.

Oh his new album Wrote A Song For Everyone, the former Creedence Clearwater Revival yowler John Fogerty has recruited a whole mess of famous people to help him revive a bunch of his old band’s songs.
