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 66.9/100, a mean average of 65.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

Originally released in 1977 without permission, to fulfil their contract with Mushroom records, a law suit followed & the album was then rereleased in 1978 with rerecorded vocals on the studio tracks (Mother Earth Blues & I've Got The Music are live) and a new running order 1,6,3,2 - 4,5,7,8. made this a better album. I think the new version is available on C.D.

Hastily thrown together to meet a contractual requirement so the record company could capitalize on Heart's success, this album sounds mostly like the hot mess it was destined to be. However, there are some good songs here with Heartless being quintessential Heart.
Still worthy of a listen.
Best Track: Heartless
