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 69.0/100, a mean average of 67.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.9.

"Blaze" was Herman's Hermits' last regular album; first released in 1967.
Compared to other rock/pop albums that were released that year ( Sgt Pepper / Axis Bold as Love / Disraeli Gears etc. ), it's no surprise that this album did not 'cause much attension at it's time. Most of the album could just as well have been recorded in 1964-65, and clearly the heyday of the band was coming to an end.
But apart from this, it's actually a fine 1960's pop album; several fine songs, fine production etc.
The band members were even beginning to write fine songs themselves. On this album "Busy Line" and the bonus-track "Nobody Needs to Know" are good examples of this. Other highlights are Donovan's "Museum" and "Don't Go Out into the Rain". So this is probably their most consistent and mature album.
