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 68.0/100, a mean average of 66.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.8.

Despite not becoming aware of James till around 89 when they started to get more radio play this is easily my favourite album of theirs. Chock full of idiosyncrasies this is James working at their own level before the distractions of Madchester and chasing a bigger sound diluted their ideas.

Undervalued debut, far better than some of their more popular releases.

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 :(
