Rating metrics: Help 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 76.2/100, a mean average of 75.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.2.

Too many covers, but cannot deny The Last Time and Satisfaction are awesome.

(U.K. Version) Some good covers on here, 'That's How Strong My Love Is' being the best, however my fav no.s are theirs, 'Heart of Stone', and 'Gotta Get Away', I've not rated certain no.s on here as they belong to the US. version.

A lot of covers done fairly well but won’t make anyone ditch the originals it’s their original tracks The Last Time, (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, Play With Fire & The Spider & The Fly that began a turning point in the band’s development.

Easily the best early Stones album. Some great covers of artists like Sam Cooke and Roosevelt Jamison along with Mick and Keith's songwriting getting noticeably better. Great tracklisting, not a single song I don't like and Mick's vocals are stellar. High recommendations for anybody newer to the Stones.

Best song(s): Mercy, Mercy; The Last Time; That's How Strong My Love Is; Good Times; Satisfaction; Play With Fire

This is the U.S. version, hitman. It's the UK version that isn't on the site...for some reason.
