Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by

Slowly redoing my chart. I'm adding some descriptions, containing my thoughts and some further exploring if you enjoy the album.
Lately I've been exploring some more current albums and lots of jazz and hip-hop. If you have some suggestions for what I should listen to (really, I'll accept pretty much anything), feel free to pm me or comment below. :)

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 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.2/100, a mean average of 92.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.7.

Very good one. I do not care for Ramones but you get extra credit for including Sweet.
For me, the best chart on the site. It has something that makes a chart great: it's intresting and unique. I love your prog choises, and if I update my chart, they would be fairly similar. Keep going!

Love the choices!
