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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.9/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

2021-02-06 I enjoyed this at least as much as the more mature and far more renowned Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. 70/100
"I can’t even begin to explain what this album means to me… It was the first record where I truly found myself… Or, at least, figured out what it is I do. And it has shaped me as an artist from that year forward."
--Lucinda Williams, American Songwriter Magazine
It's amusing that after years of labels turning her down because her music trascended the genres of rock, pop, country and blues, it took the confidence of the European label Rough Trade to finally get this record off the ground.
This self-titled album is her major breakthrough record. Even when Williams's singing style is too rough and rigid, the songs stand really strong on their own. This is a top notch Americana release and probably her most accessible album for new listeners.
Track Pick: Passionate Kisses
Her 'rough trade' album. It's got some great songs with, passionate kisses, the standout. Good stuff.
