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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

I love the Funky / Soul sound from this album with catchy dance tunes. The instrumentation is authentic and at the time of its release I was just starting to visit night clubs. I can play it today and have no problem reciting the lyrics.
These guys can really groove. Pick up the pieces is an obvious classic but there are some other great tunes here particularly got the love which is a scorcher
Hot damn, this is good! If you're looking for some great 70's funk/soul, these pasty crackers from Scotland deliver the goods. And then some.
Slick and groovy whiteboy soul
Unique album cover...........very 70's

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 :(
