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 72.4/100, a mean average of 71.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

El disco más infravalorado de Harrison. Un trabajo hermoso, relajado, sin pretensiones pero sin desperdicio.

What is this?! A tasteful, light-hearted post-Beatles project? From George Harrison of all people? I was skimming through the solo careers of the Beatles expecting at every album at most mediocrity or try-hardness, and constantly being proven right, until I came to this one. I look on Wikipedia: "pop rock, folk rock", another spiritual effort from Harrison that will just be proven to be boring I thought to myself. Then I played the first track, and it felt like full-fledged Beatles album from moment one, and it failed to disappoint me from then on. Perhaps I sound a bit hyperbolic, but I'm really surprised by how good this is.

Solid effort from George. No weak tracks. Perhaps a little too mid-tempo laid back but hey that's alright. I still have London Calling if I want to get angry. Dark Sweet Lady might be his best love song since Something.

A deep and relaxing feel-good album, that ultimately shows the spiritual, almost healing powers, of George's music.

Definitely looses steam as it progresses. All a bit too "nice". One of my least favourite albums by George.

Very uplifting music here. George was thru a very happy moment of his life.

The album starts very good but loses some steam at the last quarter where the weakest -but not bad- songs appear.

Still quite a strong good album overall with plenty of beautiful music.

Harrison's most lively, pop oriented album is also one of his best. Top notch melodies and good diverse lyrics make this a very enjoyable listen!
