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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.4/100, a mean average of 80.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.0.

Why o why is this not rated higher. This is a superb early 70's prog rock album. But it is not typical of its time this is prog rock with a hard rock outer coating. Bite into this and you will find it has a real crunch to it. It does not meander and lose its way like many prog rock albums. It doesn't disappear up its own exhaust pipe, it delivers a heterogeneous collection of musical styles which help to create moments of real pleasure. All the tracks are energetic, mesmerising and full of interest. The songwriting and musicianship are brilliant. This album is on a par with the best of Crimson, Yes and Genesis and even gives Floyd a good run for your money.
Give this album a few listens before you decide. You won't be disappointed.
Make sure you listen to the 72 original it's far superior to other recordings.
