Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.6/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Creedence started out good and with each successive record (until Pendulum) they got a little bit better. This, thus, is one of their least good. Being this good at their worst is quite the feat. (Edited)

Creedence Clearwater Revival is a band that can be considered one of the godfathers of rock music. True, there are too many such godfathers on both sides of the ocean, but still, the Creedens were among the most prominent part of this rock music elite.
However, I've never really liked most of this "rock elite", because I started my acquaintance with music with much heavier samples – Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep and others like that. If I listened to something from the 60s with relative pleasure, then only a couple of recent Beatles albums. I didn't like the Rolling Stones, the Animals, or even the early Pink Floyds. It was all the "sixties", which I didn't perceive at all after "Deep Purple In Rock" or "Led Zeppelin IV".
Despite the apparent "shabbiness" of their songs and the deliberately loud vocals, I've always been hooked by John Fogerty's solars. (Edited)
An good debut album from Creedence Clearwater Revival. Full of good old fashioned rock'n'roll, it's features some of the band's greatest performances. Best of the bunch without a doubt is the stunning version of, I put a spell on you, CCR's best ever cover in my opinion. All in all, not the best CCR album, they would come, but this is a rip roaring start. (Edited)

I like how they start out as a blues rock group, but really have their own character and true songwriting in their own whit. Something often missing from these early white dude blues rock bands. Also love how they put a southern voodoo feel on I Put A Spell On You... probably best version of the song. (Edited)

The Beginning of a sensational string of evergreen rock albums. (Edited)
