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 77.9/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

Honestly not my cup of tea
A great album through and through. This is what an acoustic folk record should sound like.
Its a really solid album through and through. It just sounds much much more assured and beautiful than his debut a year before. The songs are consistently gorgeous and topical yet timeless. In songs like "That's What I Want To Hear" its amazing cuz the concerns aren't dated at all. And his tribute to John F Kennedy - "That Was A President" is truly beautiful, if a bit too hero-worshippy for my taste. And songs like "Draft Dodger Rag" is hilarious and incredibly catchy. Some of this album is ridiculously preachy, but that goes with the territory and I found myself growing used to it halfway through on this listen and then tired of it by the end. Still, a solid album throughout. It's no "The Times They Are A-Changin'" but then again I don't think that is what he was going for. Phil brought his own balance and message forward and as a result this is one of the best protest albums of the era.
Grade: 7.7/10
