Folk/Rock
Everybody should know Dylan. Best singer-songwriter ever.
Top tracks: "Subterranean Homesick Blues", "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)", "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue", "Mr. Tambourine Man" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Folk/Rock
Another fantastic Dylan album. "Don't Think Twice It's All Right" is one of my favorite songs ever.
Top tracks: "Don't Think Twice It's All Right", "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall", "Blowing In The Wind", "Down The Highway" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Rock/Psychedelic/Proto-Punk/Alternative
Pioneering experimental rock band and strange German lady.
Top tracks: "Sunday Morning", "Heroin", "Venus In Furs", "I'll Be Your Mirror" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Rock/Pop
The Beatles are legendary, so I shouldn't have to explain.
Top tracks: "Eleanor Rigby", "Here, There, And Everywhere", "Good Day Sunshine", "Yellow Submarine" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Rock/Pop
The medley on this is awesome. The Beatles always come strong.
Top tracks: "Here Comes The Sun", "Oh! Darling", "Come Together", "Golden Slumbers" - "End" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Folk/Rock
On this album Dylan sounds a bit different. Watch Jimmy Fallon's impression.
Top tracks: "Just Like A Woman", "Visions of Johanna", "Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again", "One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later)" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Rock/Pop
This album is full of energy, variety, and innovation.
Top tracks: "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds", "A Day In The Life", "With A Little Help From My Friends", "When I'm Sixty-Four" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Pop/Rock
Dank.
Top tracks: "Norweigan Bird", "In My Life", "Nowhere Man", "Drive My Car" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Rock/Psychedelic/Proto-Punk/Alternative
The other wonderful Velvet Underground album. Still incredibly unique, noisy, harmonic....just go get the album.
Top tracks: "Pale Blue Eyes", "Beginning To See The Light", "After Hours", "What Goes On" [First added to this chart: 03/25/2013]
Very similar to The Beatles in my opinion. More of a concept album then their other work.
Top tracks: "Victoria", "Yes Sir No Sir", "Drivin'", "Mr. Churchill Said" [First added to this chart: 02/06/2014]

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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 3% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.8/100, a mean average of 89.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 9.8.

Excellent chart
re my last comment; glad to hear from you that I was wrong about how you rated albums!! Your one line notes are a lovely touch by the way, a really neat little entrance to these albums if you've never heard them before. Well done!
Great picks for singer-songwriters
Certainly a good and interesting chart though I'm not at all keen on your listing of how many songs on the albums you vibe with (X/X). A simple like/dislike system seems to me way too reductive in assessing the quality of songs and doesn't take into consideration how they 'sing together' to form one cohesive piece (à la Arthurknight's terminology). I really hope you're not one of those people how rates an album by aggregating the scores of its songs. Other than that lots and lots to be proud of - good list!
fantastic list. several albums on here i've been meaning to listen to for awhile.
Nice chart.
The comments really propel this chart. I love your picks for the chart. It's all so great.
Bloody good chart! The notes, though brief, make it all the better. 30 albums in common. Quite a few albums I want to check out including Joanna Newsom and the rap albums you have on here. A very good selection of albums.
Completely agree with your comments on Pink Floyd's Animals
Great chart a good mix of genres and a nice mix of era's not too much of the same stuff from the same period.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
