Bringing It All Back Home

Herein lies some of his most imaginative poetry, some of his best melodies, and the most heart-twisting ending of any album ('Mr. Tambourine Man,' 'Gates of Eden,' 'It's Alright Ma...,' and 'It's All Over Now...'). Some say 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' has the makings of Hip-Hop before 'Rapper's Delight,' but I think it's just a brilliantly intoned narcotic ode to rhyme.

Yeah, yeah, 'Like a Rolling Stone' blah blah etc. but I love 'Tom Thumb...,' 'Queen Jane,' 'Desolation Row,' and most of others on this one. It may be a bit over-hyped, but it does deserve massive props particularly for above mentioned reasons. [First added to this chart: 03/12/2011]

This one grew on me. It took about ten years, but it has supplanted Blonde on Blonde as my #3 Dylan record. The maturity and complexity of the songs keep my coming back. I am going to memorize all the verses to 'Lilly, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts' someday, until then I will enjoy 'Meet Me in the Morning', 'Buckets of Rain', and (of course) 'Tangled Up in Blue'.

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 12% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 87.7/100, a mean average of 87.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 88.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 10.9.
