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 is rated in the top 17% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.6.

Yardbirds is not makin any impressions on me. They try rock hard, but somehow it does not work for me. Noisy, lack of riffs and solos. Blaah

Good guitar album, not a lot more than that.

It's ok but two things need to be pointed out:

-The sound is awful. The quality of this recording is so poor that almost make it unlistenable. There are 30s and 40s recordings that sound better and clearer than this.

-The album turns from R&B to hollow beat/pop from #8 onwards. The quality of songs drops significantly on that second half.

Probably best know for early recordings by Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. A good album for the time.
