To me is the Beatles best, because is a more conceptual album than revolver, more well done to me, and has their best song ( a day in the life), one of the most emblematic songs of the 60's (Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds) and one of Harrison's best (Within you Without you).

Most revolutionary album ever, making a break in the music before and after this one. Songs like Eleanor Rigby and Tomorrow Never Knows makes a before and after.

My favourite Beatles album, it has very original pieces in many styles, and also many just regular tracks.

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 79.6/100, a mean average of 75.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 13.8.

A very british selection of records. Obviously all classics though, particularly since most of them are from the 60's/70's era of music when British rock bands were arguably miles and miles ahead of their american counterparts in terms of both quality and creativity. Nice to see you put OK Computer up there as well, my all time fav!

Lots of really good albums here. And it flows really well. Also, I heartily approve of the number one ;)

It's a little too metal heavy for my tastes, but most everything else is stuff I love.

Good chart, nothing I don't like but your comments are a bit confusing. Why would you rank your favourite Beatles album behind 2 other Beatles albums?

Near perfect top 10. Great to see Quadrophenia get some credit.
