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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.7/100, a mean average of 72.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

I adore The Guess Who and this is possibly my favorite album of theirs. Undun and Laughing are top tier songs for me. Contains some of their best deep cuts and like a ten minute song which is kinda strange for them but it's great haha.

A very enlightening and good album accompanied by great musician ship a mix of jazz and blues, Some songs are pretty eclectic,
A fun LP from the iconic Canadian rock group, but it doesn't do them justice. Awkward sonic moments pepper both sides of the album, and the side one standouts (No Time, Laughing, Undun) would be overshadowed by tidier productions of the same hits in later-released singles and compilations.
Essential for prairie rock aficionados and Guess Who super-fans, but otherwise a safe pass.
I love this record. A genius mix of pop sensibility and seventies guitar rock. Gifted songwriting and that voice. A most under rated band for sure

An incredible album with great hard rock riffs, pop melodies AND and a somewhat folk/blues vibe. Laughing is up there with the greatest rock and roll songs of all time.

Undun is a unique gamble that paid off and shows that these guys were much more than big riffs and that big voice.

What would Canadian classic rock sound like without the Guess Who? Cummings was gifted at piecing together catchy melodies and biting lyrics, while Bachmann dreamed up better guitar riffs than most of the best at the time. Put them together and this is a 60s masterpiece. These guys should have been way bigger in the US. Topped only by the Band.
