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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.8/100, a mean average of 77.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

Solid Neil Young performance from an era of his career that he wasn't overly fond of. Tuscaloosa may have been performances of the Time Fades Away tracks than the original release. The set is a nice mix of Young classics and some songs that were unreleased at the time.
Contends for best one-disc summation of Neil Young's charms - the Harvest songs done better than on the studio release, the Time Fades Away tracks better than the official 1973 release. "Lookout Joe" is one of my favorite tracks on Tonight's the Night, and the version on this album is better. Wasn't expecting this archival release to be so exemplary. What a pleasant surprise for a 30-years-long Neil Young fan.
