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 is rated in the top 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

Not very psychedelic, some decent tracks', otherwise, not worth a revisit. Beatles or Kinks were more psych...

Decent album. Pretty much everything about it is worthy of praise except for the recording. The songs lack an energy that they desperately need at times and I think a lot of that has to do with the relatively poor quality of the recording. It's easy to draw comparisons to Pink Floyd's debut because of the similar vocals styles but the similarities don't go much further than that, in my opinion.

A great unknown record. Imaginative, innovative, psychedelic pop/rock. Give it listen.

One of the few lost gems of the psychedelic era that's as good as advertised.

Acclaimed by critics but strangely unknown to the general public. I think this is a great psychedelic album that deserves to be considered among the best albums of the 60's.
