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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.0/100, a mean average of 77.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Non si capisce se Jonathan Wilson sia stato influenzato più dal folk psichedelico degli inizi degli anni settanta o da quella generazione ( i suoi coetanei ) di perdenti lo-fi degli anni novanta ( Elliott Smith, Will Oldham ecc… ), almeno per quanto riguarda l'approccio vocale, chè di lo-fi in "Gentle spirit" non c'è niente, anzi, il disco è curatissimo nei suoni. Belle canzoni ( alcune ), atmosfere malinconiche, solo che, secondo me, avrebbe giovato un po' più di concisione...
Better known as Father John Misty's producer. Jonathan Ross comes out of the famous Laurel Valley. Gentle Spirit represents his first solo outing. I think it's fantastic. Reminiscent of a early Pink Floyd / Elliot Smith hybrid. Great melodies and basslines, gorgeous stuff. Track Picks: The Way I Feel, Natural Rhapsody, Desert Raven
