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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.5/100, a mean average of 69.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.2.

Shortlisted for album of the year at the Grammys in 1990. The winner was Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
O suco da década de 80!
Summarizes Henley well. Intelligent and pleasant, but a little slick.
Lots of filler, but a lot of classics as well.
Mature, reflective songwriting - quite beautiful in its best moments, I think.
Don Henley's The End of the Innocence capped off the '80s on a perfect note.
Brilliant album.
Excellent album.
The title song reminds me of a trip I made from Las Vegas to Yosemite to San Fran...I remember hearing this song on the radio as I came out of the foothills of the Sierras (going west to SF) and hit the beautiful countryside of northern California..this was in 1989 when this song was out...just a really beautiful memory..
