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 91.8/100, a mean average of 90.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

Shortlisted for the album of the year at the 1970 Grammys. The eventual winner was the self titled album by Blood, Sweat & Tears
What else needs to be said about this album that hasn't been said? Every song on side 1 is amazing on their own, as well as every song on side 2 flowing perfectly together into one of the greatest, if not the greatest medleys ever written. Abbey Road is something you can never get tired of, and is the closest thing I've heard to a perfect album.
This album contains some of the best, Come Together & I Want You, and some of the worst, octopus’ garden and maxwells silver hammer, of the Beatles.
Rather a mixed bag and not the Beatles best album I’m afraid. Decent enough listen though
Abbey Road is the best album from the best best band of all time. The Beatles will always remain the greatest creators of the album as art (especially since that art has mostly disappeared). The reason that I rank Abbey Road above their other work is because they really were peaking as musicians. This album is just better produced than almost anything that came before it (specifically it's a quantum leap from the white album). I'm one of those who find the connected side two to be the best pop music ever created by the fab four. But even beyond that there are just elegant moments that you didn't find before these sessions (the interplay between George's guitar and Paul's bass in Something). And as with all Beatles albums the ideas of four splendid imaginations always take you to unexpected little islands of pop scribbling. Just an outstanding album adventure that is mostly unequaled no matter where you look. And what better moment to end a career like this than "the end" (it's unfortunate the Her Majesty is placed where it is but you can't have everything).

Not my favourite Beatles album but there are some great moments on here. I much prefer Revolver as I think the songs as a whole are stronger.
This was my first REAL album experience. I remember sitting down after school one day to work on homework and though, “well, I don’t want to do playlist today. I know a lot of songs off of Abbey Road, Let’s do that one.” I’m still trying to come to terms with my first listen over 3 years ago. Not a dull track, except maybe Oh! Darling, but it’s still good enough. Something was my favorite song go a while, and I Want You (She’s So Heavy) still takes me back to the summer I played this on vinyl on repeat for 2 months. the medley is so genius and Beatle-ish that it could probably define their whole career along with Hey Jude. It’s not a perfect album, but how it’s that close makes it the best album of all time. Thank you John, Paul, George, and Ringo, for giving me, and all of us, something so beautiful.

A historic album
A masterpiece is an understatement when describing this album. An emotional rollercoaster, and the peak of songwriting. Perhaps the greatest album ever crafted.
Even better than Revolver, for my taste.
