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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 77.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.6.

Part of what made Wishbone Ash great is they always rocked with the guitar! Unfortunately this album is much quieter than the rest and it's noticeable. Solid in parts but mostly forgettable!

Listening to this one, first time for me, a rather good album, some more reflective tracks and slightly softer feel in places with some lovely guitar work. Perhaps trying to find their way in the late 70's, which a lot of bands found tricky.
