Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by Detroit Rock Citizen

Only one album per artist although some people show up as members of different bands (e.g. Clapton). I've tried to limit the number of best ofs but those included I feel are warranted for obvious reasons. I've named a representative song for each album.

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 79.3/100, a mean average of 78.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.6.

Solid chart! Lots of great albums and lots I need to listen to. Also great that no one artist has too much representation.

Nice top 9. Understandably 70s focused. This is more a "best of" the 20th century. Good selection.

This list displays a pretty good variety. But it is like you stopped listening to music after the early '90s.

Outstanding chart, with some very interesting and unique choices. I'm going to have to check out that Woodstock album.

I like how you got that Elvis Memphis Anthology. I looked over the tracklist and I haven't heard too many of them, but I really like the ones that I've heard like Gentle On My Mind and Kentucky Rain. And Suspicious Minds is in my all-time favorite Top 100 Greatest Singles. Even though a lot of people don't like it. Ha ha.

I guess the classics are classics for a reason but far too much of bias towards 60/70s rock with no real variety sorry.

What a great chart, apart from the jazz (which I have never been able to get into) there is so much good stuff on here - I can see that we are similar in age from the album selection!

Great chart positioned in the 60´s 70´s!
Maybe nothing for the youngsters, but I cannot understand the ratings below 70 points!
Who the hell downrates this chart so terribly?
