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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.5/100, a mean average of 78.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.1.

Words cannot describe how obsessed I was with this compilation album as a child. Everything from the cover to the track selection and their sequence, including the amazing b-sides Fortune Faded and Save the Population, is perfect. It is also the only Chili Peppers release that is the home to one of their greatest ever songs, Soul to Squeeze.
Fantastic compilation. If you want the hits, this is it.
If i had to pick only one album that i can listen to the rest of my life I think this might be the one
A good collection of RHCP songs/hits.
A couple new songs and a good batch of old ones. If you just want the big hits then look no further.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
