We did a long run at calculation of ratings of albums against individual
tracks way way back in the mists of time...

Our conclusion was that where Hawkwind was concerned at least, the
correlation of album rating with track rating was achieved by squaring
the track weightings, summing the squares, then dividing by the number
of tracks. I think that basically supports the conclusion that one good
track can outweigh a couple of bad ones and an album will be a hit once
it has four good tracks plus anything else worth talking about.
