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 84.3/100, a mean average of 83.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.1.

Not really for me, too much ambient filler. Fearless is a nice song. Echoes is good but far too long. If it were 6 minutes long I'd love it, but dragging it out for 23 minutes is bound to lessen the quality. I enjoy much of Pink Floyd's work but not this album.

Quando estavam super prog!
A bunch of nonsense on the first end, with some sprinkling of good music here and there.
And then probably the best song ever on the other side.
Hard record to rate.
Tracks 4 and 5 shouldn´t be there IMO. The rest of he album is amazing.
Solid album
Echoes is a timeless piece of music, and other songs on this album like One of These Days and Fearless are excellent too!
Opener record for Pink Floyd greatest era. Echoes is magnificent and the rest is pretty good too.

The "Eternal Second" from PF discography: everybody loves this album, basically do not know anyone who puts it as their favourite from Pink Floyd.
85.83
Lo primero que me llamó la atención de este disco fue su portada. Yo no tenia idea que Pink Floyd tenía un disco con ese gráfico y me pareció genial como cover art, porque además destila un estilo psicodélico y de rock experimental.
La primera canción que escuché fue San Tropez y fue en una historia de ig. Me llamó la atención la mera existencia del album y me fui a escucharlo. Eso fue hace unas semanas, hace ya casi un mes, y desde entonces, por lo que recuerdo, he escuchado el album completo unas 4 veces en total, pero claro, he repetido muchas más veces mi canción favorita del album, que es Fearless. También debo mencionar One of These Days, porque me encantó como primera canción. Yo muchas veces cuando escucho albums renombrados tiendo a juzgar si lo escucho completo o no por la sensación que me genera la primera canción, y definitivamente la primera de Meddle me obligó a continuarlo porque me atrapó y hasta ahora me sigue sorprendiendo cómo Pink Floyd logra hacerme disfrutar los instrumentales.
Ahora, honestamente no recuerdo A Pillow of Winds, es decir, ya me la olvidé, pero en su momento le di 80, que no está mal. San Tropez, al ser la primera que escuché, se queda con un recuerdo especial, yo le doy un 85 y disfruto mucho al escucharla. Seamus me parece un filler, o una canción con la que quisieron rellenar el album. Sin dudas le baja un poco el puntaje al album.
Finalmente, me encojo al calificar Echoes, porque hay partes que disfruto, pero no es lo mío esto de estar escuchando canciones tan largas, diría que solamente lo hago cuando me encantan verdaderamente y por ende, son de mis favoritas, porque sino no le veo el sentido de estar escuchando una misma canción tanto tiempo. Habiendo tratado de justificar esto, digo que le pongo 85 a Echoes, y esto con el perdón de los fans de Pink Floyd que me lean, porque estoy seguro que a lo mejor le deben colocar un 100. Sin embargo, lamento que no sea mi caso.
Ya para concluir, este es un album demasiado canchero y agradable. Diría que hasta ahora, que me faltan escuchar Animals y Wish You Were Here, es mi #2 album favorito de Pink Floyd después de The Dark Side of the Moon, y comparte el 2do puesto con The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Fearless es mi highlight y Echoes es la obra maestra que por ahora no conecta conmigo. Eso sería todo, seguiré en orden con la discografía de Pink Floyd. Por ende, la siguiente que escucharé será Obscured by Clouds, disco al que honestamente le tengo expectativas. Paz.
Muy buen disco. Uno de los mejores, un pasito por detrás de sus cuatro grandes clasicos.
Echoes es un temazo a la altura de su leyenda.
