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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 73.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Not bad by any means. He tickles ivories like very few before him. The album would be so much better had he chose the EP version of Give Judy My Notice.
Best Tracks: Bastard, You to Thank, Landed, Prison Food

My favourite Folds' solo album. Surprisingly consistent and more mature than his other efforts.

Starts with a bang... some of his best, but then fades in the second half. Still strong.
fantastic album. i think his best. track picks: bastard, Jesusland, Landed, Give Judy My Notice and Late

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
