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 68.0/100, a mean average of 66.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

For me this is Leonard's least interesting album in his entire discography, it still has a few moments worth checking out but overall it feels like more of a stop gap instead of a studio album.
One of the problems here is it doesn't have anything that immediately grabs me although quite a few tracks are reasonably pleasant.
An extremely laid back album. Leonard Cohen's voice is now completely shot, basically he can't sing a note anymore so Anjani Thomas helps out on that score. As for the album itself, dear Heather, is a bit dull. There are no great songs here, but a few are okay. The sexy sounds of opener, go no more a-roving, is nice enough, on that day, deals with the events of 9/11, and, nightingale, is beauty-fill, but there's certainly nothing essential here. It's really a late night lights out record, but it's a bit forgetful.
