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 76.5/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

Brilliant album with many interesting tracks. To any Kinks fan who's wondering how to get into Rolling Stones as smoothly as possible: this is where you start.

Favorite tracks (UK and US versions combined): Ruby Tuesday, Yesterday's Papers, Back Street Girl, Connection.

The version i have been listening is us album , which has two very good songs Let Spend The Night Together and Ruby Tuesday on it. They are best songs , the rest are a little above average. Goat Head Soup and Its Only Rock are better albums. This album would not make my top ten best Rolling Stones albums.

Much like the Stones' previous output "Aftermath", the US version is far superior to the UK release, which isn't featured on this website. Leaving off "Let's Spend the Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday" is a big miss. US version gets a 7/10, UK edition is more like a 6.

Best Song(s): Let's Spend the Night...; Ruby Tuesday; Yesterday's Papers.

An psych pop / bluesy pop rock mix that works more as an successor of Aftermath than as an predecessor of Their Satanic Majesties Request.

Good collection of songs but some are stale compared to the more lively tracks on the record. There isn't anything that blows me away but nothing is really overtly bad, either. It's good but kind of boring. I'm rating this based off of the American release.

Front loaded with some quality tunes. Falls off rather in the second half. Decent album

I'm rating the US version of this album since I can't find it on the site. "Ruby Tuesday" and "Let's Spend the Night Together" are classics. "Yesterday's Papers" comes close. Rest of the album is fine. A little disappointing coming off the excellent Aftermath (US version)

Said the same thing about Aftermath, this is not the version that I own.

Really cool album. In particular, "Cool, Calm and Collected" and "Something Happened to Me Yesterday" are deliciously quirky. Of course the US version, with the famous two-sided single, is preferable though.
