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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.7/100, a mean average of 80.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

Excellent idea by Paul McCartney to produce the Let it Be album the way it should have been at the time. Extra points for including the excellent Don’t Let me Down. Though to be honest, I do miss John’s humorous comments from the original album. (Edited)
A beautiful look at the Let It Be that should have been. This is far superior to Spector's version because it elimates the two unnecessary tracks and adds Don't Let Me Down in their place. A Beatles collection simply isn't complete without this.
This is what the Beatles intended - the "get back" sessions were about reclaiming good-old-fashioned rock and roll. They wanted to be a band again without all the studio post-production. The naked album is true to that.

Sound is now excellent on this album apart from anything else, be hard for that to be disputed. A joy to hear. Overall a better listen. Some of the tracks really jump out like on chorus of I me mine. Just feels more cohesive and like a proper more "serious" studio album, good running order and the addition and culling of tracks definitely work. I probably slightly prefer the original across the universe but other than that I love it, even though I've always enjoyed the original album too. The original cover art is much better, iconic I guess, should have just made a negative of that instead. This will be my go to version, sound quality just trashes original cd. (Edited)
Turned what's considered to be a hiccup in the Beatles catalogue into one of the greatest albums of all time.
