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 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.4/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

Early Stones with no too many own songs. But the R&B roots is treated fairly and suitably well. A good example of dedication to the roots which will stay in the Stones canon forever.
Time is on my side is a must listen
Love the early bluesy albums of the Stones
Big step up from their debut, just the quality of songs are better imo and Keith's guitar is icy. Best Stones album 'till "Out of Our Heads."
Best Song(s): Empty Heart; Time is on My Side; Good Time, Bad Time; Congratulations

Com bastante blues e inspiração americana o Stones estavam encontrando seu próprio som.
