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 5% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 80.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 11.9.

One of the best guitarists without doubt, but some material can be a bit harsh to the ear. His 1995 'Joe Satriani' album is my favourite, some cool sounds and expressive licks and great interaction in the band.

Best guitarist in the world

Shredder with more melodic expression than anyone else in the genre. Unfortunately, he doesn't put the same effort into his rhythm section, which can get monotonous.

I'll give credit for his playing. He's at the top of the game. I just don't find his music that nice to listen to. It's too much technique, not enough humanity.

Just a guitar master. He taught Kirk Hammett, Steve Vai, and Alex Skolnick. He understanding of guitar is mind-blowing. He is just THAT determined and talented.
Some of his albums have been classics that connect with where I've been in life. Others are just good background music.
