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 71.5/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

Shortlisted for album of the year in 1985. The winner was Can't Slow Down by Lionel Richie
Well the hits are good, and got constant airplay at the time. Album has 4 covers I think, and Steel Claw is the best of these. Five good tracks are brought down a bit by five mediocre ones, making this a good album but not a great one.

Three bangers: Private Dancer, Let's Stay Together, What's Love ..
Good track I Can't stand the rain
Other tracks are mainly fillers, not bad but forgettable
high energy about nothing

Bela fusão de R&B e rock para as rádios.

I like this one, especially 'Let's Stay Together', 'Private Dancer' and 'What's Love'.
Fun album!
It stands up surprisingly well. It's a decent album. Competent soul rock. Mark Knopfler's title track is a highlight, as is, What's love got to do with it, and a soulful version of the Beatles, Help!. Good pop album.
Perfect comeback album.
Great album. Still enjoyable 30 years after release.
