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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

Kingofstorm. This is a 'greatest hits' album. That means it features their singles and these are all the singles they released between 1987 and 1995 with the exception of, Nightrain. It doesn't matter if they are your favourite G'N'R songs or their 'best' songs, this is a greatest 'hits'. That's what the term means. These are the singles released, these are the hits and that's why they are the songs on the album. I never understand why people seem to think a greatest hits album should be a collection of 'their' favourite songs rather than what it actually says it is. Anyway, whose going to compile an album of their 'best' songs and then the record company release it? Me? You? No. Guns'n' roses greatest 'hits', simple as. No less, no more.

Does what it says on the tin. Would have preferred, Nightrain, to, Sympathy for the devil, but if you want the hits then this is the one to get. Patience, should have come after, Paradise city, not before.

Best of's are never an option in my opinion. An album is an experience like a movie, a book or an opera, but with a good album it gets better everytime you listen to it. So start with Appetite for Destruction.
