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 albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 66.8/100, a mean average of 65.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.0.

An average effort from a band about to hang it up.

"Right as Rain", "Saga of Pepote Rouge" and "Christmas must be tonight" are all fantasic, an album with a definte pop feel but an overlooked album nonetheless. Despite a crappy album cover, no promotional campaign from their crappy label (Capitol), the fact that this was their last album for Capitol...it still could be their best(shock!) album, better than their overrated first album.
