Has anyone else noticed the oddity at no. 7 in the best album charts?

Didn't notice it before, but it is indeed strange, that such an uneven album can make it so high in the all-time prog greats. Then again, maybe I'm biased, I was never a fan of that period in Floyd's career.

I'm pretty sure there's a mistake. Not many of the reviews are 5 stars. I'd say about 60% are 4 and 3 stars, and I can't see how it can be that high.
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

Have we found a flaw in the algorithm? I performed a search but didn't come up with anything...is it documented somewhere?

There's no way those scores average at 4.81. COuld be a problem with the algorithm, could be a Floyd-obsessed hacker. Big smile It's possible.

That makes no sense at all. 4.81? I think 3.81 is more accurate, looking at the reviews for it.

I'm sure it's a mistake. It came out of nothing and it doesn't have that many 5 star ratings. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon. Ummagumma higher than In the Court of the Crimson Kings, LOL, don't make me laugh LOL

I got in Shocked when I noticed that too... I believe there is a mistake in that algorithm based formula. How can something come out from nothing??? Not even ranked as No. 30 or No. 101. It just popped out right there.
 
Anyways, it is there. Smile

Ummagumma at #7, as awesome as it is, is a glitch that needs to be fixed.
