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 has a Bayesian average rating of 69.9/100, a mean average of 69.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Meio repetitivo, mas ainda bom.

Not sure what George was going through while recording this boring album. His voice is terrible.
Acceptable at best.
The few really good songs are ruined by his voice (he was ill; I guess he thought he would never ever get healthy again so he proceeded ahead to record them that way).
Incomprehensible.
My 2nd favorite George album behind All Things Must Pass, the consistency throughout is there

Forget it's George. Forget it's an ex-Beatle. On its own merit, it is a really good album. (Edited)
