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 is rated in the top 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.5/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

Maybe his best solo album, some great songs here: Speedway to Nazareth, Silvertown blues, What it is, and the title track. Note the listing is for the US version, the international version has "13. One More Matinee" instead of "6. Do America"

Mark Knopfler is my favorite musician of all time. I'm so glad he still makes solo work. A musical legend.

A fine album made only finer due to contributions from James Taylor and Van Morrison. A bit of a dropoff from my personal favorite Knopfler album, Golden Heart, but still quite good, and better than anything he's done since, in this listener's opinion.
A good one but Kopfler had not really found his perfect solo sound here. The two first tracks are amazing though!
