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 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

Solid Rock n Roll album. First half good, second half tailing off a bit. For myself 'Let Me Try' is best track and hidden gem of the album
I was actually pretty disappointed by this. Maybe it's the fact that a lot of the proto punk from this era that we still talk about is absolutely timeless, but I can't imagine a time will ever come where I prefer this to a Velvet Underground or Gang Of Four record or anything. It seems lackluster and less innovative than everything else that was going on.
Way ahead of their time this record is revolutionary.

It's hard for me to believe that these guys weren't popular upon the release of "Back in the USA."
Pretty good record.
