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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

I disagree with almost everybody on McCartney´s McCARTNEY. Being released, as it was, at around the time of LET IT BE and the whole sad end to The Beatles, its reception by critic and fan alike, was mixed, to put it mildly. I just loved it and still do. It seemed like a very personal record and musical offering from the artist to his enormous fan base. Everything he has made since is open to all the criticism, good and bad, that the work of a musical genius must face, but this release, and its classic love song, Maybe Im Amazed, remain essential Pop classics for 1970 and for all-time.
9th track is a masterpiece ??

A bit of a hodge podge, but enjoyable. Two absolute stunners in Maybe I'm Amazed and Junk, and then some solid tracks and some forgettable tracks. A somewhat inauspicious solo debut for McCartney, but in its way that's pretty radical considering what people must have expected from a Beatle. Definitely charming!
Este álbum tiene alguna de las mejores canciones de McCartney (Maybe I'm Amazed, Every Night...) junto a momentos insoportables (Kreen-Akrore).
Paul McCartney's solo debut is a true solo effort. He performs all the instrumentation himself and took complete control over his music after the Beatles had obviously ended just before its release. This album is a grower. Maybe I'm Amazed is one of McCartney's best solo songs if not the best. I do feel like the album is a bit uneven, but I find that adds to its charm somehow. Critical opinion on this one has strengthened over the years.

Grande estréia de McCartney. Ecos experimentalistas e psicodélicos belíssimos, apesar da produção crua.

Kinda a brilliant mess! Rating (76.92)
I've got a real soft spot for this album. I really enjoy it all the way through. Has a really unique vibe to it.
Overall: 8.5
Top Tracks: "That Would Be Something" "Every Night", "Man We Was Lonely"
Too bare for me personally, perhaps a poor idea to release in the immediate aftermath of the break-up of the greatest band in history. The romantic songs are charming, but I think the album could have benefited with more time and a larger band.
