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 72.6/100, a mean average of 73.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

This is simply a delightful album. Derek Trucks guitar work has a sweet eastern sound to it. Some great keyboards and organ. Guest singers include Doyle Bramhall II and Susan Tedeschi. Trucks Band lead singer Mike Mattison has a really cool voice. There are originals on here, but also some very good covers (very different from the originals). Bob Dylan's Down in the Flood is covered, as is a blues song by Big Maybelle, I Know, and a Paul Pena song, Something to Make You Happy. Originals Get What You Deserve, Already Free, Goin' Home (a bonus track on Itunes), Days is Almost Gone, Back Where I Started. All very good. If you like contemporary blues, soul, gospel...you will listen repeatedly. (Edited)
