Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by matto
Here are my favorite albums. Though the order and album selection does change all the time, the majority of these albums are ever constant. I am always on the lookout for great, new music, however the classics are hard to top... hence my love of the 1970's. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.

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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 85.1/100, a mean average of 82.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.9.

David bowie. 24 albums in common. Great choices
A great overall chart , you love the 70's and Bowie. 9 albums from one artist is a wee bit excessive. Also I would have included Outside (an amazing album similar to the Berlin trilogy) instead of Diamond Dogs. 16 albums & 15 artists in common so what's not to like.
21 albums in common!
Plenty I agree with here.
Too many albums of the same bands/singers. There are a lot of classics and even having some good albums, it's far from my personal taste.
Great chart with lots of nostalgia. 22 artists in common. All great albums from Bowie!
Solid chart. Lots of excellent albums.
Awesome Chart! you really love Bowie and that's great! You should listen to a little more modern music
Great seeing Led Zeppelin's very first album on you chart arguably their best album
Good chart! There are many albums i like, but only one thing: A Hard Day's Night is better than The Bends and Kid A?
