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 82.1/100, a mean average of 81.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

A classic from Bob Marley at his peak. So many good songs that by now must be classified as "standards" within the reggae genre. "Don't worry.....'bout a thing....'cause every little thing is gonna be alright...."
Not a fan of this type of music, it all sounds the same to me. However I can't deny that Jamming, Three Little Birds and especially Waiting In Vain are great. The second half is much better than the first half.
Exodus is a concept album that explores themes of faith, love, and hope in the face of adversity. The album's title track is a seven-minute epic that tells the story of a man who is searching for a new beginning. Other notable tracks include "So Much Things to Say," "Waiting in Vain," and "Three Little Birds."

Hit after hit. Maybe the best reggae album of all time. The long version of Punky Reggae Party from the deluxe edition is my favourite Bob Marley song.
Great reggae album from the greatest in this genre, it's just not my style of music.

Although many die-hard reggae enthusiasts may think this album is too poppy. IMHO it is just a great album with so many catchy tunes that make you feel good
Picks(but there are no fillers so every track is good
- Jamming
- Exodus

- Turn your lights down low

I never thought I'd enjoy a reggae album as much as I enjoy this album. Consistently great.
