AV = the site mean average rating.

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 4% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.1/100, a mean average of 89.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.5.

Very interesting and diverse chart. Like it a lot
Que lista foda!!!
Gran lista. Saludos desde Uruguay!
Me gustan todas tus elecciones de música brasileña. ¿Ya escuchaste "Os afro-sambas de Baden e Vinícius"?
Hey, me gustó mucho tu lista: bastante música que no conozco.
Me llamó la atención que tengas mucha música brasileña siendo de Bolivia. Me surgió la duda: ¿se escuchaba mucho por allá o fue un descubrimiento y exploración personal?
Acá en México sólo nos tocó escuchar de Chico Buarque, Os Mutantes y Caetano Veloso, por supuesto. Pero en general para llegar a otros sonidos tienes que aventarte un gran clavado.
En fin, como decía tu lista sirve muy bien de guía.
Great chart! Nice blend of mainstream, underground and international picks.
Love that you have Television as your number one. Very good album. Overall really good chart and nice seeing some obscure older stuff in the mix.
Terrific taste - love the placement of Marquee Moon, Skylarking, IYFS, and Acabou Chorare
LOVE this chart - great mix of the classics with lesser known picks, and a healthy dose of South American records. Would love to see some notes for a perfect score!!
very nice chart
