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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

This artist is rated in the top 1% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 85.3/100, a mean average of 84.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 13.0.

Their singular blend of grit and charm make them perhaps the quintessential American rock band

A good, solid, Southern blues/swamp rock band if there ever was one. Most underrated album is their self-titled first. Susie Q is a masterpiece. Cosmo's Factory reads like a greatest hits, but, unlike so many "best of" albums (CCR has way too many of those), this one has a flow, a continuity. CCR definitely rates in the holy trinity of American working class artists, along with Springsteen and Seger.

Damn... CCR either is dripping with the best ever grit/Southern Rock, etc. or incredibly boring dad rock. 9/10 I go with the drenching with soul southern rock, quality rivaling the Stones and Beatles, easily. Their cover of Midnight Special is my all time favorite and speaks to their simplistic yet soulful music... those that don't understand that typically are looking for prog/avant garde music (which often is absent of soul) or they are too young to appreciate the music or its place in music history. Or they simply have a different opinion/life experience than me... hehe.

Much beloved band that I seem to think less and less of as time goes on, probably to the exceedingly simple few major chords used over and over in most of their songs.

Great band - well ahead of their time I think, in that they still sound fresh today.

Its strange reading these comments about how CCR are under rated and unrecognized. Actually they were the most successful band of the period. It was unanimous that they're the best American band EVER. Nobody thought otherwise. Even now they're thought of this way. Anyone over 30, anywayl

Gran banda, una banda atípica para su época, en la era de la psicodelia, ellos apostaron por el blues y el country.
