Blonde On Blonde

One of the few non-conceptual double albums that manages to keep the listener enthralled from start to end. This album seems to build from Highway 61 and produce some of the best lyrics that Bob Dylan has ever written, benefitting from the ability to fit in those longer tracks.

"Louise, she’s all right, she’s just near

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 9% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 88.2/100, a mean average of 89.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 89.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.6.

Absolutely fantastic collection of albums here.

Completely agree about your comment on my Top 100 about similar music tastes. Have not seen many similar charts to my music taste either so was great to see a list like yours.

Have not been to see Godspeed live yet due to living in the UK, but am hoping to catch them in the next couple of months when they come over here as I can only imagine how good it would be!

Have been meaning to listen to Roger Waters solo work and looking at your list has giving me the push to do so as you rate his albums so highly. Excited to see how your chart develops over time!

16 albums in common. Not bad, when it's out of 35. I dig The Wall, DSOTM and my favourite Wish You Were Here. Floyd did many masterpieces. Also love Dylan and the Beatles. I like Eminem a lot too, although I only have one of his albums' on my Top 100, Marshall Mathers LP. But I have more of his on my decade charts. Yes, a very good chart, despite its brevity. Good notes too.

Really good chart. I like the track ranking feature although I can't believe some of your choices for the lowest pick e.g 'Leopard Skin...' and 'Queen Bitch' which are some of my favs but I agree with 'Dr. Robert' though on Revolver, always thought it was a weaker track.
