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 68.0/100, a mean average of 64.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

The album offers a lot of average songs but no real highlights. "Dance Naked" and "Another Sunny Day" are the best songs but nothing compared to Mellencamps previous releases (album rating: 56,67%)

A surprisingly good late-period Mellencamp album. The easy highlight is a cover of Van Morrison's "Wild Night" as a duo with Me'shell Ndegeocello.
