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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Album of the year. 1981
Quizás, el último gran álbum de los Stones, comparable a sus clásicos de los 60 y principios de los 70.
My favorite by them.
I cant say that i am really keen on this album, definitely would not buy it. The first four tracks are ok, along with the last three. I think that Goat Head Soup and Its Only Rock And Roll are better albums.
The last decent stones album
This one just fell flat for me. I've always hated "Start Me Up" and it seems like that was really the only notable song from this. Nothing bad, the songs are quite fine for a first time listen but I can't imagine i'll be going back to this soon. Maybe my least favorite Stones record.
Best song(s): Heaven

Clássico instantâneo quando lançado e sobreviveu muito bem a prova do tempo.

Love This One! Rating (84.09)

A commercial success. Perhaps they should of packed it in after this release.

"Tattoo you" non sembra affatto quello che in effetti è, una raccolta di scarti realizzati nei sette anni precedenti. Quasi tutte le canzoni che lo compongono sono così riuscite che sarebbero state tra le migliori degli album dai quali sono state scartate e non mi riferisco solo a dischi come "Goats head soup", ma pure a "Some girls". Basterebbe "Start me up" a garantire all'album un posto rilevante nella discografia degli Stones ma poi c'è molto altro, tra rock, blues, soul e ballate.
