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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

This is pure rock'n roll the way Dave Edmunds communicate it: fast, simple ... and with a lot of 50's feeling. Dave is a purist musician with a lot of love to the early times of rock (Perkins, Presley and the Sun sound generally)!
I loved "I hear you knocking" and the album "Repeat when necessary" is just one out of several excellent records he has made in this genre. He's a genius in his field!
