Best Hard Rock Album Ever
I mean come on, every song here is a 90-100 except for "four sticks"
I was at my 2 year in College when i arrive at my apartment and my roomie was listening to "Misty Mountain Hop" at madison square garden and for that moment Led Zeppelin blew my mind and change my musical experience because i wanted to know more and more and discover new genres, bands and artists
Member by member Led Zeppelin is the best band ever and this is their best work

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 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 91.2/100, a mean average of 89.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.8/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 20.3.

Hey man, I've come back to this chart a second time and it gets a perfect 100. I love your introduction and the huge respect you've given to the artists, producers and collaborators that made this amazing music possible and brought so much joy to our lives. You've clearly put a lot of work into this, there's an awesome personal touch to it and I can relate totally to your stories within. I've also got some great tips off this chart - whilst there are plenty of well-know classics - and you share much of the same tastes as mine - there are quite a few I must give a listen, and it's really helpful that you've listed all the genres/sub-genres covered in those albums. Love this!

Very classical chart. Fine.
Your liner notes are well informed, personal, characterful and warm hearted,
No surprise that everyone gives you a good rating.
So do I.

Mucha música similar, pero sí extrañé más artistas de habla hispana. Sin embargo se entiende que hay que traer a cuento un ch1ng* álbumes clásicos que yo dejé fuera. ¡Saludos, man!
