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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 80.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

The best compliment I can give this album is that it was given to me in 1973 when I was a freshman in college and I haven't stopped listening to it since. I was pure rock and roll and country rock then, artists like Van Morrison, Jackson Browne, The Band, Goose Creek Symphony were my favorites. Jazz was far, far off my radar. Yet Compared to What cranked my spirits like no other song did back then. And it still does today.
