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 has a Bayesian average rating of 78.7/100, a mean average of 75.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 15.5.

I really wanted to like it, but with Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Springsteen in the top 10, it's just not possible.

Two not-so-conventional Bob Dylan picks that I really dig.

Not really my scene. Each to their own and all that.

Southern Harmony, Kiss Me Kiss Me, Electric, Mother's Milk - fab choices! But where's Bang Tango? Hall and Oates? My Sister's Machine? Faster Pussycat? and all the much loved bands of the past you tortured me with endlessly? I hope you hang your head in shame for like myself, not including the beautific Salty Dog. I thought you were better than that.
