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 71.2/100, a mean average of 70.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

This gets kind of written off, quite unfairly. It's the most straight ahead folk that they put out and it's charming. It's the one by them I check the most. It does sound a bit like Dylan or Donovan in places. Though Dylan did praise the record at the time.
Some fine songs on here, October Song is beautiful, despite sounding more traditional than the other albums the lyrics are still very outlandish. Also has jigs played on Banjo and whistle. "Not chasing a hope or a dream or a plan and I'm not even chasing the sunset"
