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 73.4/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

From the Bob Welch era, a version of the band that Fleetwood and McVie have a tendency to forget for some reason. "Mystery To Me" is the second best album the band ever released, following only "Rumours." Every song on it is excellent.

Not bad. Rating (74.17)
Hypnotized is one of the greatest Fleetwood Mac songs ever. Emerald Eyes, Why, The City and Miles Away also stand out as great Fleetwood Mac originals, and their cover is For Your Love is arguably better than the Yardbirds' original version. Mystery to Me is an underrated classic.
Strangely enough, Hypnotized is one of my least favorites here. Favorite Tracks : Miles Away, The City,Believe Me and Emerald Eyes.
Best Track: Hypnotized

Fleetwod Mac's return to making rock music. Well worth a listen.
"Hypnotized," indeed. Oh, my.

I debate whether this is Fleetwood Mac's best, (Of their first three or so incarnations) but is is definitely a guilty pleasure with "Emerald Eyes," "Forever," with its hypnotic guitar riffs, and of course, "Hypnotized." Perhaps Bob Welch was reading Carlos Castaneda at the time he channeled that song? So different from most of Bob's other writing!. The other songs that he penned give a glimpse into his writing and composition style that showed up on his solo albums. (I love Bob and much of his work, but will be the first to acknowledge his cheese making as well. "Precious Love?" Ouch...)
