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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.4/100, a mean average of 78.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

A very interesting new group for me. never heard before. The breath of fresh air with very well-crafted vocal work.
This is a very cute and fun album that has a lot of great cuts on. Almost every track is quick paced and easy to sing a long to and just have a good time while listening. This atmosphere is kept consistent the whole way through and it is difficult to find a dull moment. The one criticism is that it can be a bit simple at times and so when you come back to this album after a few listens there isn't loads to explore. On the whole, this album is so enjoyable and worth a listen if you want to feel good.

Fantastic, beautiful album that could only exist in the late 60s. It sounds like a legitimate response to Pet Sounds and Sgt. Peppers. Really blown away.

Brilliant album, every bit the equal of the Beatles' or Beach Boys' contemporary efforts. Though unfortunately known to only a small few. The songwriting here is top-notch, with some brilliant production touches and creative arrangements. Not a weak moment here. Wonderful.
A very good but obscure record.

This album is phenomenal! I was pleasantly surprised to discover an album I like as much as "Pet Sounds" or "Odyssey & Oracle" suddenly out of nowhere. I would have loved to hear more from this band beyond "Begin".
I prefer the other Curt Boettcher project Sagittarius.
