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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 78.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

The Sinatra of country music returns, delivering the marvelous follow-up to his masterpiece "Looks Like Rain."

Everything there is to love about Newbury is here. The gentle voice, the heartfelt lyrics, the tender performances, and the dreamy studio production.

As Waylon Jennings summarized, if you don't like country music you need to listen to Mickey Newbury.

This album is currently available on the "An American Trilogy" compilation, which also contains "Looks Like Rain" and "Heaven Help the Child."

Essential.

Digitally available in its entirety in the American Trilogy compilation or at Mickey Newbury's website.

All songs written or arranged by Mickey Newbury.

Essential.

Career Highlight: American Trilogy
Gems: How Many Times Must the Piper..., The Future's Not What It Used to Be, Frisco Depot, Swiss Cottage Place
