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 79.7/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.2.

Pretty good list. I can see you are a fan of Buffalo Springfield

I feel your musical taste, I think that 70's are the best time for music even more that 60's and 90's

You placed Pablo Honey as the best Radiohead album wow

A range of musical styles over 4 decades. Supertramp is an obvious favourite.

It's OK, in part because it's so diverse, but it's correct to say that it could use work. A lot of work.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
