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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.8/100, a mean average of 78.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

The musical sound and style are highly derivative and yet Amy Winehouse brings her own personality to to the album.

Amy Winehouse demonstrates her amazing talent and is backed beautifully on this record. They take a classic sound and modernise it to create this new soul style which sounds fantastic. This is primarily due to the stellar production which elevates this album tremendously. It is Winehouse herself who steals the show with her phenomenal vocal display that is packed full of power and soul. She commands songs like Love Is A Losing Game, You Know I'm No Good and Tears Dry On Their Own and make them into instant classics. Instrumentally, this record is very strong as well with their being a huge array of instrumentation which create a beautiful sound across the whole release. Overall, this is an album that drags soul into the modern era in a fun and enjoyable way whilst making it more accessible to the newer generation.

The voice and personality of Winehouse is extraordinary. But the production is what really makes this album a classic.
It's not an easy feat to make a classic style sound contemporary and fresh.
If Winehouse had lived today, I would have loved to hear her on a Sault album, since they do something similar productionwise.

Take an old jazz standard. Ella Fitzgerald, maybe. Then add a filthy mouth and a broken soul and you get this modern masterpiece. Compelling from start to finish.

The musicianship is stellar and the songwriting is crisp.

I have scored this up since first listen - I quite liked the singles at the time and homage to that 50's/60's sound. Over the years I have come to appreciate it more

La diva, peut être trop… Tristement rentré dans le club des 27. Une voix atypique comme il n'y a en avait pas eu depuis longtemps. Quelle artiste, quel dommage :-(
