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 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

This is a classic album whose quality will endure forever. There is a soul sound to many of these songs and some disco dance tunes which remind me of the night club life from my teenage years. Harbor Lights is such a romantic song that is probably my favorite. My son recently had been playing some of my records and discovered he liked this too.
Shortlisted for album of the year at the Grammy's in 1977. the winner was Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder

Cool! Soft Rock soul. Ratings are a little bit harsh... top tracks: Lowdown. Lido Shuffle, Georgia
B+
lockdown find,i remember the cover,but wasn,t interested at the time.bloody good album.
Boz's album is a superb collection of blue eyed soul with a smidgen of rock. Lowdown is wondeful with a truly brilliant groove but the album is solid throughout
