Okay, this is the best live album ever recorded.
Thanks to good Bob Dylan for this great music, writing this on May 2016.
This live album contains every single masterpiece of this extremely popular songwriter (he wrote most of these songs in his twenties and early thirties, what the fuck am i doing with my life?). 95 minutes of pure Dylan-ness, I wish people praised this as much as they praise other Dylan albums(such as the fantastic Blood On The Tracks, which was like a personal diary or the double "el-pee" Blonde On Blonde, or Bringing It All Back Home).
Best tracks?: Anyone
Worst tracks?: None
Why do you rank it here on the list? The albums above I think define better my rebelious and misantrophic personality, and I have Soundtracks For The Blind in an special place in my heart, sounds weird for a experimental rock that it's 2 hours long album. [First added to this chart: 05/08/2016]

A life doesn't end with a smile on it's mouth, but with the face of the cover art of this album.
I feel this album was made for the weak, pensative guys. [First added to this chart: 05/09/2016]

It is said that Bixler-Zavala hates this album.
He completely lost his mind with progressive metal, this album is far superior to anything from Mars Volta.
Is just my opinion. [First added to this chart: 04/14/2016]

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 is rated in the top 6% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.6/100, a mean average of 90.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.3.

Interesting to see a chart where we selected a lot of the same artists, but few of the same albums. Keep expanding--I look forward to seeing #'s 97 to 100! I may need to revisit my rating, as I need to listen to more of these albums (Master of Reality, Still Life) to better assess them.
