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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 73.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

I have been lucky enough to see Nils Lofgren twice, one time back in the eighties, again about 8 years ago. Nils is a very underrated musician, he is a seriously good guitarist having been a stable in Springsteen's E Street band for many years. He is also a good pianist (contributing on Neil Young's After the Goldrush) and at one concert I'm sure I saw him switch places with the drummer for a song. All of the songs on this album bring back happy memories of those concerts, there are no weak tracks, an underrated album as well as artist.
This one proves that Nils didn't need to be a side man to make a great record.

What a gem this is! Nicely hidden, in its own little place in a mid-seventies world with tracks such as "Keith Don't Go (Ode to the Glimmer Twin)", "If I Say It, It's So" and "Goin' Back".
