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 79.0/100, a mean average of 78.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

That jazz-fusion thing is one of the most terrible music I've ever heard and it's a shame that the late Jeff Beck had to jump on that bandwagon. "Diamond Dust" is the only good song on here, maybe "Cause we've ended as lovers", but the rest is barely listenable.

Definitely a turning point in his career, jazzy and fusion.

Music fit for an elevator... or a suburban grocery store.

This album defined Jeff as the master of his instrument to the ROCK CANON forever.

I've been after a Jeff Beck album on vinyl for a while and was so pleased to pick up this orange vinyl re-issue. The album is absolutely superb, it is cool, exciting, complex, it touches on several musical genres, jazz, blues, rock all cross paths. Really pleased with this purchase.

This Album is ranked behind #2500? Disappointing... In my opinion it even deserves being under the top 100. Jeff Beck is one of the best remaining guitarists.
