Produced by Chas Chandler. Jimi Hendrix was a star for only four years before he died, but in that time, he did more to revolutionize the guitar than anyone else in the history of rock combined. The Experience was a great band...but it was all about Jimi. Are You Experienced is his coming out party. Thisis guitar like it had never been played before, and people are still trying to copy the playing on this album. This is the album that proves Jimi was the master of the electric guitar. Accept no substitutes.

Produced by Chas Chandler. Once you get past the somewhat ridiculous (and thankfully short)interview with the alien thing at the beginning,you have what may be the greatest guitar playing over the course of a ton of short little songs ever assembled. Only two tracks extend past four minutes...yet the guitar genius of Hendrix is never in the background. He did this with 2 and 3 minute snippets...imagine a double album with the songs stretched out so he could really wail on them!

Produced by George Martin. Originally a 19 minute EP, this was released to American audiences as a stunning album to accompany a pretty terrible TV show. And while it's a rare Beatles album with two weaker tracks (the instrumental "Flying" and "The Fool On The Hill"), the rest more than makes up for it. "I Am The Walrus", "All You Need Is Love", the 1-2 punch of "Strawberry Fields" and "Penny Lane"...it's tough to beat this one out, even though it wasn't intended to come out the way it did.

Produced by George Martin. Along with Pet Sounds, one of the most influencial albums of all time. For me, it's showing its age a bit right now...but that doesn't mean it's not an amazing album, nor does it mean that I don't still love it as much as ever. Some songs will never grow old, like "A Day In The Life". Some, like "With A Little Help From My Friends", sound dated. This one moves up and down for me...someday, it will be higher again. That day might be tomorrow...you never know.

Produced by Norman Smith. Now, I love Pink Floyd as much as anyone. And I think that the Syd Barrett album was really very good, and really interesting as a study of the onset of insanity. Is Piper At The Gates Of Dawn the best work by Pink Floyd? Far from it. But there are enough great moments on this record to warrant it being rated very highly. Pink Floyd was a completely different band here, beyond interesting, highly entertaining, and a necessary part of the history of one of rocks best bands.

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 3% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 89.9/100, a mean average of 88.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 16.1.

Nice chart. I Agree with some Albuns. But i don't Guess ThatvThe White Album Is The Best Of The 60s. Yes He is one of the best abums of the beatles but not to be the best
