CCR frontman John Fogerty was uniquely inspired by The Devil and Daniel Webster, a 1941 film adaptation of the classic short story of the same name by Stephen Vincent Benét, in which a farmer sells his soul to the Devil and then gets out of the contract by hiring famed 19th-century lawyer Daniel Webster to defend him. In 1969, Creedence Clearwater Revival went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Bad Moon Rising," a jaunty number full of cryptic lyrics about earthquakes, hurricanes, and unsettling objects in the night sky.
