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 artists can have several thousand ratings)
This artist is rated in the top 4% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 79.4/100, a mean average of 79.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 14.8.

My feeling are the same as andy hunter. Why don't LIzzy feature much higher in this chart. You'd think that more BEA members would appreciate what a fabulous band they were. C'est la vie but you're missing out on a brilliant band.

SUCH an underrated band. I love the guitar work of this band soooo much. RIP Phil Lynott.

Maybe the greatest rock band ever. At least top 3 easily for me. Adore them. Phil Lynott is one of my musical heroes.

One of the best bands of the 70s. Their discography goes much deeper than Jailbreak.

I'm surprised at how low down Thin Lizzy are on the overall band rankings. You'd think their influence on newer bands like, Belle & Sebastian and The Strokes would have them higher up. Evidently not.
