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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.5/100, a mean average of 78.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

As already mentioned, an album of two halves. Personally his Beatles output does surpass that of his solo career. Solo stuff's still good, but you can hear the difference. He was my favorite Beatle. Good old George.

Just a difference of opinion, but I personally liked that this "Best Of" was a 1/2 and 1/2 split of Beatles material and solo material, as it allowed me to see the growth of Harrison's songwriting skills across the decade and a half that is represented here. Issued in 1976, remember Harrison still had another 15 years of music to come!

Decent collection but would have preferred the best after leaving the Beatles as (sweeping statement), everyone will already have the Beatles tracks?
