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 71.2/100, a mean average of 69.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Let’s start with I love Jethro Tull. Ignoring their great albums; I.e thick as a brick, aqualung, passion play, minstrel in the gallery, songs from the wood, heavy horses, bursting out, and stand up. I feel you are left with the 2nd tier albums such as: this was, benefit, too old to rock n roll and too young die, etc. so where does this album stand in the tull hierarchy? Very badly from my standpoint until just recently - Something On The Move was always good, the last great single as far as I’m concerned, but the rest of the album had no grab on my attention. I recently pressed myself to reanalyze the Tull discography after Heavy Horses and I listened to Stormwatch a few times…it has several moments and upon relistening it has great moments, aside of the aforementioned something on the move there is Dark Ages, Dun Ringall, and Elergy. This is not a starting point for someone to get their Tull experience, but it might be the last Great Tull album before their less than stellar 80s onwards as these albums all sound the same or sadly horrible as under wraps
Under-rated but still a slightly underwhelming finale to their late 70s 'folk trilogy', this is not a bad JT album. It's not a great one either, but I'm sure fans will like it.
