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 1% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 93.9/100, a mean average of 95.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 95.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.7.

Great idea for a chart and love the notes that you have included. Given me some great ideas on future purchases. Thanks for pulling this together

As a new fan of authentic, delicious psychedelic music, this chart has so much to offer. I've listened to almost 20 here, and not 1 album I find uninteresting.
Edit June 2024: A few of these records now mean a good deal to me, thanks.
Right up my tree. Nice chart and comments.
Larcx13 01/06/2021 11:23
Thanks for this one. Damn.

good work, man!

I like your chart it has the unknown goddies of the 60s and 70 and have good for me German bands on the list so 90 point for my favorite eras 60s and 70s.

Love the idea of this char; I was thinking of doing a similar thing once I hit the big 5k and make a 'Hidden Gems' list of my favourite albums outside the BEA top 1000. Will def be mining this for recs - still though I'd rather hear your thoughts on these records rather than someone else's, even if that Bobb Trimble review is delightful.
Great idea for a chart. Would like to recommend The Good Rats "Live at Last" or "From Rats to Riches" Great band that never caught on outside the New York City area

Somewhere in the future, I'm gonna pleasure my journey with these lost ones XD
