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 85.0/100, a mean average of 84.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.0.

An interesting chart that clearly defines your taste in music ¬ and has a few albums that I missed along my own journey and will have a listen to ¬¬ and for that I am most grateful. The inclusions of 2 Australian & 1 New Zealand albums deserves applause!

as you have only one album for artist, found the Stones' entry interesting. "flowers" is one of their better 60's albums.
haven't seen the Music Machine on any other list. older brother owned that album. Played the shit out of it as a kid.

I have a lot to check out. I feel like there is a lot I've yet to listen too that sounds up my alley. Great to see some lesser known albums get a chance to be seen and now put on my radar.

I'm surprised to see Pet Sounds at #47 given your taste in music.

I don't necessarilly agree, but I certainly UNDERSTAND why one would prefer that "Present Tense" album to "Pet Sounds". The album's opener might be the most hauntingly beautiful, mind-altering, gorgeous "new" thing I've heard this year. It's really rare to come across such mastery of sound and production with great melodies as well (the entire album and bonus tracks that is). Right below that album sits "Gandalf", an equally gorgeous experience I've got from your chart. I don't know where you find all these gems...
Keep 'em coming!
