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 83.9/100, a mean average of 80.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.3/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 20.6.

I like this chart. I usually prefer a little more variety in that top 10, but you got Silent Way #1, that's dope.

Sorry, but I find this chart a bit boring and lacking personality. It's like the best of the best of BEA members charts. When I look at user charts I am always hoping to be 'surprised' (at least a little) and to trigger my inquisitive nature to explore a previously unheard of artist or album. No surprises here, unfortunately.

"A chart that I hope reflects my tastes to the best of my ability." Man, I hoped that too. I can see an effort behind this, hand picking quotes for every record. Some personal picks like Takk and A Crow Looked at Me shows some thought, preference and character, but otherwise I cannot get that behind this chart that much. As many others have said, a vast majority here is so close to the overall chart it almost feels a bit dry. I still appreciate the chart and want to believe that the intro description clangs true, but at the moment I can't totally see it.
