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 12% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

This is the first of his post-Truckers albums that feels completely right. I get the impression that he struggled to fit into the rock mold of that band, and continued to struggle on his first two solo albums. This one is a nice mix of laid back blues-rock and soul, in that Muscle Shoals tradition, and finds him doing what he does best: telling sad stories about tragic characters.

Yeah what he said. It's brilliant! And right alongside "Southeastern" in quality and emotion and a certain flowing naturalness. I think every album I've heard by Isbell is fantastic. This may be my 2nd fave release of his just behind Southeastern. Just fabulous!
God bless you and Jason always!

A classic from Jason and the gang. Lovely album.
