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 71.0/100, a mean average of 68.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

Kind of forgot about this album but started playing it again and love every track on it. Right up there with 'The Pretender' and 'Late For The Sky' in my opinion.

Consistently solid album from Jackson Browne. It doesn't really have the standout tracks like most of the 1970s albums, but there are none that are skip worthy either.
