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 75.7/100, a mean average of 73.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 27.3.

Good chart! Nice to see The Trials of Van Occupanther alongside more conventional choices such as Pet Sounds and Songs in the Key of Life.

From manurock 10/25/2014 09:15

Buena clasificación. Prácticamente incluye a todos los artistas y grupos que me gustan de los 60-70. De ellos, me faltan algunos discos como Crime of the Century, Crisis what crisis? o Animals, escúchalos si no lo has hecho. Lo más sorprendente (agradablemente) es encontrarme a Triana. Echa un vistazo a mi clasificación y a la de Kaiser si quieres ver grupos de rock progresivo actuales.

90 plus 5 for the Easybeats equals the highest score I've given any chart. Felicidades! ;)
