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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.9/100, a mean average of 77.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

This is like if Randy Newman fronted Genesis and I mean that in a good way.
Excellent psychedelic album. The organ work is superb.
My copy does have the Bach and doesn't have "Conquistador." But boy does it stand up well...
A fantastic but short album. Whilst only lasting for 34 minutes they really pack a punch into the music. There are so many amazing songs such as kaleidoscope, Cerdes and Conquistador. A few songs don't live up to the same level but luckily most of these are quite short tracks. Overall it is a top quality album and worth a listen if you only know Procol Harum because of their big hits.
It's a product of its time, but I mean that in a positive way, it takes you back to 1967 and it's quite a ride.

Interesting but lacking in feeling for me.

An all time favourite. I would list the best tracks, but 7 of the songs on here are near perfect and can't really be ordered, so I'll just mention the 3 that aren't nearly perfect.
Firstly is 'Mable', a charming little ditty that I really do like a lot, just not as much as 7 of the other tracks on here.
Secondly, 'Good Captain Clack', like 'Mable', short and inoffensive, but not half as good as 'Mable'. Still quite a good song though.
Finally is 'Something Following Me', which is, again, still good, just not as good as it's siblings.
Crap production, but great record. Extremely underrated, probably because it doesn't include, Whiter shade of a pale, or/and, Homburg. The songs on the album aren't quite as amazing as those two tracks but it's a fine record, a wonderful snapshot of psychedelic Britain.

Better track listing is Wikipedia's listing of US version, which includes all all of my favorite tracks:"A Whiter Shade of Pale", "Conquistador", "Repent Walpurgis", and "Cerdes" is a close contender. The rest is ok.
