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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.3.

I’ve always been a Winwood fan and love his experimentation with synthesizer on this album. This is definitely my favorite Traffic album, and I understand other fans will point to other albums. Granted some of the songs are long and it is Dream Gerrard that is my favorite. I love the artwork on the cover of this album.
Every traffic album is worth a listen. Certainly not their best but some nice stuff here
