Rating metrics: Help 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 71.6/100, a mean average of 71.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.6.

Richie Sambora used Bon Jovi hiatus to make his first solo album. Blues influences have always been present in his playing so it's no wonder this album is a departure from Bon Jovi sound and a trip into blues-rock teritory.

His voice is incredibly underrated since he's at least just as good as Jon Bon Jovi and his singing here matches his playing which is full of Claptonian influences. Lyrics are suprisingly strong since complement the music nicely.

Sambora went on to make two more solo albums, but this one is clearly the best and better than most Bon Jovi albums.
