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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.9/100, a mean average of 76.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

I have the original 1971 vinyl issue and track two on side one is 'You Can't Kill Me' which is one of the best tracks so I don't know why it is missing from the tracks reference above?
Anyhows, many think that the radio gnome set is a trilogy but this is actually the beginning of the radio gnome epic being the first album released by the original Gong.
Not being picky but there is another error in the track listings above, it should be 'WET' cheese delirium, not 'We'.
Criticism of the incorrect ttack listings aside, this album sowed the seeds for an epic journey into musical insanity and I love it all! For me 'Angels Egg' is top of the tree.
