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 14% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.4/100, a mean average of 88.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.2.

go on with your chart...
Great choises and a promising start! I hope you fulfill the next 50 too! Then you get the last 5% missing here!
I think you have a great basis in the classic artists from the past, and is clever picking out the newer promising acts! Well done!

Great picks. I hope you'll add some more albums later on :)
Cheers.

Dynamite! Love seeing Buddy Guy on there, although I must confess I have not heard that particular album. Going to put Tom McRae on my list of things to check out as well.
Love your descriptions! Can't wait to see your other choices!

This is a very fun chart. I think I may love it even more when it gets to 100. Loved seeing the Boo Radleys on here and Dylan and Kate Bush so high. They are the bestest.
