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 66.6/100, a mean average of 63.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.8.

Standout tracks are his No,5 hit "You little thief" & No.1 "A Good Heart", but equally great are "It's All Over Now", "Ghost Train" & "Someone To Somebody" with his soaring vocals, pulling you into the songs and feeling his energy.
Unmistakable vocal but Undertones it isn't. Decent but nothing special. The singles were pretty obvious choices.
