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 70.6/100, a mean average of 70.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

Paul Revere & the Raiders second Columbia album under the direction of producer Terry Melchior is probably the closest the group came to deliver a true garage rock classic. The group subsequently released a string of great albums, but these were most too well-produced to fall under the garage category.
"Just Like Us" features the classics "Steppin 'Out" (Lindsay / Revere) and "Just Like Me" (written by the obscure songwriter couple Dey / Hart). These two songs alone pay for the album.
3-4 numbers fall into their style from before Terry Melchior came into the picture and these are for me less attractive.
There are cover versions of "Satisfaction," "Baby, Please Do not Go" and "I'm Crying" - all very solid but without actually adding songs something new to the songs.
The group’s bids on Donovan's "Catch the Wind" is, in turn, interesting - the song has got a folk / rock treatment that could easily lead the mind towards the early Byrds, for whom Melchior also produced . There is also a very fine version of Smokey Robinson's "I'll Be Doggone".
Finally, there is the Beach Boys-inspired TV song "Action".
A little uneven album as a whole, but it has a handful of songs very hard to ignore.
Solid fun record that suffers from too many covers. However, it does contain the wonderful 'Just Like Me' which brings it up a notch.
Great garage rock album that doesn't get enough praise...from a band that is largely forgotten but sold many records and second only to The Beatles and Rolling Stones.
