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 71.8/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

Lots of the same, fun but quite uneven to my eardrums. Just not for me,
The first Album I ever owned. Received as a Christmas present at the age of 11. Loved it then and love it now. Hadn’t listened it for man years and recently revisited it. In my opinion Madness best 💿 just ahead of One Step Beyond. Other than Solid Gone I love most of the songs on here. Baggy Trousers and Embarrassment are stand out tracks but the rest aren’t just fillers. Other songs of note are Take It Or Leave It, Not Home Today, Shadow Of Feam and In The rain. Highly recommend this Album.
All killer no filler. To me, the last great Madness album
As with all Madness albums the singles are the best. The other tracks just simply don't compare with the likes of, Baggy trousers, Embarrassment, and, Return of the lost Palmas 7. Still, not bad album.
