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 73.1/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

Another quality Lynyrd Skynyrd album. Gimme back my bullets, their fourth studio LP, is full of more excellent southern rock. The title track is superb, one of the best songs here, but other highlights include, every mother's son, roll,gypsy,roll, and the beautiful, all I can do is write about it. There is also the band's second J.J Cale cover, this time, I got the same old blues. Another good album from a band who never did anything bad.
Skynyrd went into a bit of a lull in the middle of their 70s streak. This is not a bad album, but not impressive either.
Not a bad album, but when compared to their three masterpieces it falls very very flat. The title track and Double Trouble are highlights.
This album really makes it look like Skynyrd was running out of steam. The great new ideas are lacking.
I enjoyed this release better than I thought I would. Rating (77.78)
