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 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Very good Camel to take you to the Oasis do drink some precious water. Must recheck latger
Tracks 6 and 7 are some of the top classic Camel pieces you can listen to. It's a pity that the album's quality is not mantained throughout the rest of the album.
One of the lesser known and for that reason more underrated albums by these masters of prog. Touches of jazz are intermingled with pure progressive brilliance! Worth getting on vinyl for all those true prog heads.
Very underrated

The melodic, airy, full of light and harmony prog-rock with some slight jazz influence. One of Camel's masterworks.
