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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 77.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.3.

A stunning album with absolutely amazing guitar work. Totally an unknown album to me.
Highlights are too many to mention. This album also sounds timeless!

This is an incredible album. There are 16 tracks, ranging from very good to outstanding, and not one of them is a waste of space. The production is idyllic and lends the music a glowing warmth. Graham's guitar playing here and elsewhere was incredibly influential upon a number of later, better known guitarists, such as Bert Jansch and Jimmy Page. Guitarists, such as those two, moved beyond the threshold of Graham's playing, but the influence is undeniable.
This is in my inner circle of underrated albums on this site and of all-time, and I'm not being merely hyperbolic. If you like folk, blues, or jazz, this album is absolutely essential.
