Best American rock band of all time

This is obviously a subjective post. As post suggest “all time” so feel free to go back to to the 50’s and please consider that bands from this millennium may not hold up in a couple decades. Also genre blending bands welcome.

I’m convinced everyone loves CCR

I’d be the exception, though I do respect John Fogerty. I feel the same way about Creedence as I do about Bob Seger: they’re not bad, just not inspiring to me in any way.

You’ve described my feelings exactly about both CCR and Bob Seger. And I am judging from their time, for what it’s worth.

I used to like a lot of Bob Seeger’s music - not enough to buy it, but I’d enjoy it - but his music has not aged well for me in the current millennium.
