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 76.2/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.8.

A complete synthesis of Beatlemania. Out of all the albums Capitol messed with between 1964 to 1966, this is just one that works, what with the inclusion of "I Want to Hold Your Hand", "I Saw Her Standing There" and the gorgeous "This Boy". And by including 11 of the boy's original songs, it highlights their early skills as pop writers.

This would be close to top-tier if the second half was half as strong as the A side.

Good solid album not the best work but representative. Best songs: I Want To Hold Your Hand, I Saw Her Standing There, Don´t Bother Me.
The weakest? I tend to think so, and rarely listen to the album the whole way through. Love I'm a Loser though and I'll Follow the Sun is early McCartney magic.
least best beatles album

American Beatles albums aren't proper Beatles albums, so I'll skip rating this one.

The overwhelming impact in America of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" backed by the superb joyful rocker "I Saw Her Standing There" cannot be disputed. The Beatles new revolution of modernizing rock & roll begins here. But this record is much more than the power of that double-sided single.

The album that made british music popular in america
