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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 83.5/100, a mean average of 82.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Good songs. A pretty depressing album ultimately. John clearly misses Paul.
great for John, I guess. so, so for me.
Arguably his best, though I would rank it just a tiny bit behind Imagine.

Não é perfeito, mas algumas de suas canções chegam perto.

Really great work. Outstanding tracks Mother, Working Class Hero and Well Well Well. I think i can say listenable.
Definitely one of john best albums, possible in the top three for me, Apart from the track WELL WELL WELL which i don't like i enjoy the rest of them. It's is over rated for me, and if MIND GAMES was stronger lyrically it would have been better album. Favourite tracks are no.3 ,4 and 10.

I Love LENNON, however in my opinion, this is a little overrated. Rating (78.18)
Only got to listen to this album in 2020 and I am thinking WOW. It deserves the plaudits it gets. I think I always preferred John to Paul and think his solo stuff is just more gritty and has something to say whereas Paul is a more lush and twee soundscape.
I need to get to George Harrison's Everything Must Pass as that gets such good reviews.
John is raw and open on this album - he had been doing some emotional therapy about confronting childhood issues mostly about the death of his parents and somewhat rejection of him by them (being so absent). That all comes out in spades - Mother, Isolation, My Mummy's Dead. Another theme is the rejection of religion in the inspired God.
Superb album - great vocals, stripped down production and yeah - even solid drumming by Ringo as others have called out
"Raw" is the best word to describe this album. With no BS instrumentation, with a wide variety of songs. Lennon's personal, and unique songwriting abilities in songs like "Mother" and "God". One of my favorite, if not my favorite (between this, RAM and All Things Must Pass) post-Beatles album. The album is the perfect length and right to the point. Ringo's drumming throughout this album is also very underrated.
john annoys me sometimes but this album is mostly great
