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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.5.

Hilton Valentine's guitar introduction to House Of The Rising Sun is a classic/iconic moment in modern music history - sadly, Hilton passed in 2021 - but his moment of musical brilliance will live on.

Quite nice for a debut album mostly comprised of traditional blues rock tunes. Seminal stuff to begin the Brit Invasion to the USA. This BEA entry is for the US album version

Naples is right... House of the Rising Sun is an all-time epic track.
Your feedback for The Animals
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 :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
