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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 83.7/100, a mean average of 82.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

In my opinion the best Van Morisson's album by far, mire diversed and entertaining than Astral Weeks
Best Track: Moondance
Fav Tracks: Into The Mystic, Glad Tidings, These Dreams Of You
Least Fav: Everyone, Come Running
Me encanta este álbum. Muy disfrutable. Para mi mejor que Astral Weeks.
Definitely one of the best albums of 1970. All killer, no filler.
Controversial opinion? This is better than Astral Weeks. Every song on Side 1 is a masterpiece, and Side 2 has some real hidden gems, such as Come Running and These Dreams of You. For my money, this is Van Morrison at his best.
unmistakable sound. unmistakable genius. unmistakable vocals. superb.
More accessible than Astral Weeks and arguably more enjoyable.
Side 1 is the masterpiece that everyone says the album is. And then, even if I'm the only one willing to admit it, there's a very, very steep drop-off to side 2, which is nowhere near the same level. Still, side 1 is one of the greatest album sides of the classic rock era.
