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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 77.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.7.

Love this album. This is my image of this band; and "Cobra"-- the distinctive sound of Cippolina with his banjo picks...
This has the hit track "Fresh Air", which is the standout song on the album. Might have helped to have it on the A-side to set the tone. Not their strongest release, but an interesting sonic experience nonetheless!

Despite what many others would think, i think this album is insane. Great vocals, melodies, playing and Quicksilver’s signature production all shine through on this album
This album is a significant departure from QMS' more jam-oriented early work (on account of founder Dino Valenti returning to the band following his stint in prison). Valenti's vocals are pretty effective, provided you can tolerate his hippy histrionics. The trouble is that the backing band isn't all that animated here - the more introspective numbers, like both iterations of the title track and 'Gone Again,' work alright, but 'Cobra', 'The Hat' and 'Freeway Flyer' lag somewhat. 'Fresh Air' is QMS' highest charting hit, and it's amusing enough.
