(hennemusic) Video of John Fogerty performing the 1970 Creedence Clearwater Revival classic, "Looking Out My Back Door", with Jimmy Fallon and The Roots on a recent episode of The Tonight Show has been released by the late night program.

The lineup - which also includes Fogerty's sons Shane and Tyler - delivered the third single from CCR's fifth album, "Cosmo's Factory", on classroom instruments; the song was a US No.2 hit for the California band and went on to reach Platinum status for sales of more than 1 million copies in the region.

On hand to promote his newly-launched Celebration Tour, the rocker's appearance on The Tonight Show was in sync with an early stop on the trek at New York's Radio City Music Hall.

Fogerty will play a pair of US dates this week before heading to the UK and Europe for a month of shows that will wrap up with a June 9 performance at the Holland International Blues Festival before returning for more North American dates.
