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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

This was his comeback album after having not released an album for five years. I think that this might have been the first time that Harrison worked with Jeff Lynne (who produced the album). There was also contributions from Ringo, Elton, Eric (only first names needed) and Jim Keltner. A stellar line-up.
It's not George's best work but it is a decent album with some good tracks i.e. Got My Mind Set On You and When We Was Fab.
Very basic but fun George
I think this is a top 5 solo Beatles record. It's great from top to bottom.
Resurgir de Harrison en plena forma. Extraordinario.

It's not really special at all. Why is it rated so high?

An excellent album. Probably his 2nd best album after All things must pass. Hugely enjoyable with great hooks and songs you remember.

"Cloud nine" è, per me, il più bel disco di George Harrison. No, non uno dei migliori, ma IL migliore: non c'è "All things must pass" che tenga, per me, "Cloud nine" ha una sequenza di canzoni nettamente superiore ed un suono asciutto, rotondo e colorato. Aggiungo poi anche un'altra cosa: il singolo "When we was fab" è la più grande canzone di George Harrison, contando nella competizione pure le varie "Something", "Here comes the sun", "While my guitar gently weeps" e capolavori assortiti. "When we was fab" contiene tutto George Harrison: le melodie costruite su accordi strani, la musica indiana, i giochi di parole, il violoncello tanto caro al suo ex compagno John Lennon, Ringo alla batteria, le chitarre, compresa quella dell'amico Clapton.

Favoritas: This Is Love, Got My Mind Set On You, When We Was Fab
IMO one of the best GH albums and definitively the one I listen to the most.
Clapton's work through the record is brillant.
Very very good.
One of George Harrison's most successful albums. Cloud nine, was perfect for the time, although the Jeff Lynne production sounds a little dated now. Still, some good songs in, if that's what it takes, when we was fab, and the massive hit single, got my mind set on you. Enjoyable, albeit slightly safe album.
