Fogerty is not very prolific. In the eleven year time period of this collection, he only released two studio albums, in 1997 and 2004. But what he does release tends to be of a high quality. That's the case with his stray tracks, even though in this case most of them are cover versions or acoustic versions of previously released songs. I think only "Premonition" and "Swing Blues No. 1" are new originals.
Five of the songs here are officially unreleased (tracks 1, 5, 6, 7, and 12). Those five are all from concerts or radio shows. For "The Promised Land," a Bruce Springsteen cover, I thought the lead vocals were low, so I used the X-Minus audio editing program to boost them. That's what the one has "[Edit]" in the title.
The rest of the songs come from all sorts of sources. Mostly, they're from various artists collections, appearances on other artist's albums, or B-sides. "Premonition" comes from a Fogerty live album of the same name. I've included it here because it was the only new song on that album.

The cover photo comes from a concert in Mountain View, California, in August 1997.
Thanks for the Fogerty upload. In 2013 he had another studio album "Wrote a song for everyone" with duets of old songs and only 2 new ones. (maybe that's why you didn't mention that release. I have a question: I think song 6 & 7 come from a 1997 French TV show, but... where /when was song 5 "Working on a building" done????
