Rating metrics: Help 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 68.0/100, a mean average of 66.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.0.

High enough, is one of the more enjoyable power ballads of the late eighties/early nineties. The rest is fun too.

Only previously hearing the hits "coming of age" and "high enough", i was prepared to hear a bunch of hard rock cheese from the rest of the album. Not so. Outside of a couple of useless cliches and chauvanism, this is a solid rock album even without those hits, containing many awesome rock band harmonies.

Debut album for the songwriters Tommy Shaw and Jack Blades, the start of a great songwriting team. This album has everything, guitars, sexual innuendos, even Ted Nugent! Tommy Shaw's best songs since Cornerstone. Favourites are High Enough, Come Again and Tell Me How You Want It.
