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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 86.1/100, a mean average of 85.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

There is a lot of classic Rolling Stones content on here but the occasional filler track keeps this record away from being their greatest. You Gotta Move is the worst offender of the filler tracks with it being arguable that it is a poor song. I do also find I Got The Blues to drag on a bit as well making the middle part of the record quite dull in my opinion. Despite this, the beginning and ending are simply fantastic. Brown Sugar fills you with energy and makes you desperate to hear more from this album and Moonlight Mile acts as a grand finish that make you leave the record feeling extremely satisfied with your experience. They do experiment with their sound a little more on here as well with there being quite a diverse range of instrumentation. This leads to some fantastic instrumental moments worth looking out for on every revisit. Overall, this record has its faults but it also has some of the greatest moments the Rolling Stones ever created making it an essential part of their discography.
Good album
Top 3 Songs
1. Wild Horses
2. Bitch
3. Moonlight Mile
Some incredible songs on this album. Brown Sugar, Wild Horses, Moonlight Mile and Sway are the best for me. The intro on Brown Sugar is one of the best ever. What a way to start an album. And Moonlight Mile is a beautiful way to end. However You Gotta Move is just rubbish, total filler. It's the only weak point of an awesome album though.
After Wild Horses, you expect the album to start getting dull, but that’s when the interesting stuff begins.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Album of the year.1971. This, Let It Bleed and Exile.. awesome stuff.
Easily the best album from Rolling Stones. It is absolutely flawless with incredible songwriting and delivery. It takes the brilliance of their live performances and harnesses that energy for this album.
Good album, second best of the Stones for me. Brown Sugar is an amazing opener, and Wild Horses, sister Morphine is also two great songs. Moonlight mile is a perfect ender, and not any bad songs on here in my opinion
Love this album. Favourite Tracks: Wild Horses, Sway.
My second favorite album from them, there is more than 3 good songs like on previous albums. My fav tracks: Wild Horses, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Sister Morphine.
My least fav is You Gotta Move which ia really awful and I Got The Blues is a simple filler for me.
