Rating metrics: Help 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 78.8/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

“Here's another novelty one that I thought of. It was really elaborate. The cover was like a snakeskin wallet, and it was actually textured like snakeskin. And the corners were even rounded like a wallet. And when you opened it up it had these cut out bands that held fake $1,000,000 bills with Alice…”

I've always preferred the work the Alice Cooper group did to Alice's solo career. This record helps explain why. This seems like a very collective effort from a group of musicians (including of course Alice himself) showing the world there is more to them than their singer's persona.

Lots of good stuff on here including some classic rock staples like No More Mr Nice Guy and the title track, as well as one of the greatest opening tracks in rock, Hello Hooray, a cover that fits so nicely on the album and Alice's live shows to this day.

Not a bad song on the entire album. Elected, No More Mr. Nice Guy and the title track are essential Alice Cooper songs, and they delve into some delightfully off the wall areas with songs like I Love the dead, Raped and Freezing and Unfinished Sweet.

When I bought this LP it contained a huge Billion Dollar Bill. Time has passed when I last listened to this. It is so amazing to return to the songs, they are like old friends. This album was played constantly when it was new.
The production values on this album are excellent. the album itself is mean, explicit, bizarre and fun to listen to.
6 songs are absolute bangers and there are no fillers.
Top Tracks:
- Elected
- Hello Hooray
- Billion Dollar Babies
- No More Mr. Nice Guy
- Raped and Freezin.
- I Love the dead
A classic Alice album, everybody should listen this!

Yet another masterpiece from Alice. Again, all killer, no filler. During the early 70's this man was just on fire. His series of albums during this period are the most under rated within the rock world. A fantastic addition to any collection for rock fans.

Hello Hooray is a cover but it is still one of my favorite Alice Cooper songs of all time. There are some fan favorites on here like Billion Dollar Babies and No More Mr. Nice Guy. Unfinished Sweet is a very underrated song.
