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 85.1/100, a mean average of 83.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.3.

Nicely balanced, heavy with the usual suspects up top but with some interesting more personal picks as it progresses.

Great list!! If I haven't included them in my Top 50, it's because I'd probably include them in my #51-100. (Well, except for Dr. Dre and Radiohead...never could get into either of them...just my personal taste)
