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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.9/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

"Love at First Feel," "Problem Child," "Squealer," "Big Balls," the title track...this album is filled with fun, rocking AC/DC gems. You know their formula...and this album doesn't stray from it. I see that as a positive thing. Coca-Cola tried changing it's recipe and it ended in disaster. Not all change is good. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Great silly fun from AC/DC, dirty deeds done diet cheap, like previous album, high voltage, is a compilation of tracks rather than a proper LP. Still it's a lot of fun with the title track, big balls, and the uncharacteristicly laid back, ride on, all great. Good fun.
Great album but probably the weakest in the Bon Scott arsenal (we wont count the Australian version of High Voltage). Even on saying that it's still better and stronger than the vast majority of rock albums put out. Personal note; "Ain't no fun" is my pick for favorite AC/DC song
As with T.N.T., half of this album is pure ACDC gold. Unlike T.N.T., the other half isn't great; it's... okay... It's a step back, but don't think it only goes downhill from here, because there next effort is at least 5 steps up.
Who's got the biggest balls of them all?
