Why do QWR differ?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Could someone explain to me why there is such a difference between these two lists:

PA Top Prog Albums

TOP 50 "Classic Era" 1967-1975

I do understand that QWR is query-based but how can it make such a huge difference when it comes to the albums from the same era, i.e. 1967-1975. 

Am I missing something here?

	QWR, as I understand it, takes into account all the albums, their ratings, and their number of ratings. This just illustrates how an album's rank can change given different criteria for search.
