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 84.7/100, a mean average of 83.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 11.6.

Can't argue with the selection of classic albums.

This chart has the most perfect top 3 ever.
Pretty awesome chart there Mandro.
Hehe, excellent place for Exile and Let It Bleed :) Like it!

great chart.
Oh and, by the way, velvet underground and nico is absolute classic. Thanks for reminding me. Roll on that top 100 albums then he he.
Hello mandro. I just noticed your comment on my page from last month. Thanks about the comments about "bigging up" of undervalued albums. I'm a big fan of undervalued albums as you may have guessed :0). Talking of them I don't quite know what it's about but I do think that the wonderfully playful Smile is Brian Wilsons masterpiece and easily stands up against Pet Sounds as such. Then again, I'd have Pet Sounds too if it was a list of a hundred albums :0D.

About Arctic Monkeys, yes! It seems they've regressed since then. specially with their last album. and Mandro, I like your classical rock taste and your chart also would be one of my references about it!
You should definitely try In the Court of the Crimson King, that's a timeless classic and a masterpiece, and maybe Red. The other albums you should get only if you're a King Crimson fan.
