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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.2/100, a mean average of 77.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Excellent international debut for the Australian band. Songs like "It's a long way to the Top", T.N.T., "High Voltage" and "The Jack" are worth alone the 80+/100 rating.

Prima pubblicazione americana, disco che unisce le prime due uscite australiane, "High voltage" è il mio disco preferito degli Ac/Dc: scanzonato, dinamico, allegro, un album che fin dalla copertina mostra gli stereotipi dell'hard ma giusto per prenderli ( e prendersi ) in giro, per dimostrare quanto loro fossero, in definitiva, dei burloni. Sotto l'aspetto da ragazzini, però, la struttura musicale era solida, concreta: vero rock'n'roll con la giusta dose di sudore, adrenalina, divertimento.

A compilation of their two Australian albums, high voltage, is AC/DC's first official UK release. It's obviously full of silly sexist party rock and is very enjoyable. It's a long way to the top, is a great opener, and, the Jack, and, livewire, would become AC/DC classics. Not their greatest record but a hell of a lot of fun.

My pick for the best Bon Scott AC/DC album. A great down and dirty hard rock/blues record highlighted by The Jack and TNT.

This is the High Voltage most people outside of Australia have heard. By all normal standards this is a compilation and I would not include it on my chart but circumstances are special. The best hard rock album in the history of music and a worthy #2 record of all time.
