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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

The Canadian 3-piece bring a whole lot of musical chops to the stage with this release. Fantastic musicianship on both sides of the LP, with diverse offerings of arena-style rock and roll music (Think Boston, Journey, etc.). I particularly like side 2, which rises and falls to a seamless conclusion. Some tracks on side one feel a bit overstuffed (sorry to say).
Fans of Journey, Chilliwack, April Wine, etc. will appreciate the tunes.

The first album with the great Triumph Formula. Lay it on the Line is radio friendly massive power chords, Just a Game is Rik's more introspective side, Hold On is the big power ballad, and Fantasy Serenede is Rik's wonderful acoustic interlude.
Just A Game proved to be the successful 'format' of future Triumph albums. There are some great tracks such as Lay It On The Line, Hold On and Movin' On, but the lyrics for American Girls is just plain awful.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
