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 17% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

For me this is the peak album from an period from Astral weeks to Into the music. It is a summary that can´t be better. After that it started a sekking of developing the style. A couple of albums after that, up now, are very good but there ate also a numerous that are not good but I still have them all. The one that are interesting later ar those when he went to the early period. Some separate songs on later albums are world class but never a whole album. On this album, Common one, he has delivered the number one tune for me and that is Summertime in England. Fantastic that they played that on the live Astral weeks album. He has newly made a new with the same gospel rhythm, If in money we trust. I really wait to hear a live version of that.
One off his best albums. Serene and comtemplative.
My favorite songs :Satisfied....Wild honey.....When heart is open.....Summertime in England
I quite agree, this one often gets overlooked. I discovered it at the same time as ASTRAL WEEKS, and although that is a masterpiece, this one is a fine continuation of his "Mystic Van" persona.

Beautiful! And certainly underrated when it was released. More Mystic Van than Soulful Van, but that's just fine.
Another great one from van but the strong songwriting is not really shown here. The feeling and musicianship is awese though.
I can't believe there are only 2 people with this on their list. Terribly underrated!
