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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 74.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

Honestly, this album is one of Young's best. It's so strange that it was essentially lost to the nothingness of time until 2020. It still holds up fine, but imagine hearing this thing 40 years ago!

I've heard this a few times now and it doesn't feel like a proper album to me. Half of it is great, classic Young and half filler or worse. It's not racing with anything else from this era including hitchhiker. This probably isn't the same album that would have been released at the time. A mixed bag of homegrown indeed, too many stems.

Fine album, I think "White Line" is the best track.
