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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.6/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.8.

I remember having this on vinyl for Christmas back in the eighties. I still enjoy listening to it now as much as I did back then, great guitar work from Steve Hillage throughout the album. The track 'Fish' tips a hat to what Gong produced in their album 'Shamal'. The Gong Shamal album line up are all in place on this album.
