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 67.5/100, a mean average of 65.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.8.

I really liked the 16 min song Drink from The Same Well, and a few others. Jethro Tull is still making great music. The flute, guitars, accordion sound great.
C'est l'album qui m'a le moins convaincu depuis le retour de l'entité Jethro Tull.
Je trouve le chant un peu trop narratif et manquant de relief. Rien d'extraordinaire au niveau des compositions non plus.
Cela dit je retrouve le groupe toujours avec plaisir.
