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 71.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

I agree - this is a bit of a hidden Lou treasure. Well paced with many interesting lyrics and guitar or keyboard licks. I particularly love Turn to Me, the guitar riff is excellent. Also really like Doin' The Things We Want To and High In The City.
Weakest tracks for me are Red Joy Stick and Endlessly Jealous

This album on the surface embraced 80s pop especially on songs like I Love You Suzanne, My Red Joystick, New Sensations and Down At The Arcade but the other tracks contain Lou’s typical streetwise lyrics. It is definitely a change of pace and an enjoyable release.

If you're a big Lou Reed fan like me, you will like this. Suprisingly good album.
