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 66.3/100, a mean average of 63.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.6.

This seems like a lost record to me. I bought it in the summer of 79 and on the same day I bought Dynasty by KISS. For some reason I never warmed up to this record in spite of the excellent opening track "Paralyzed." I have listened to it a lot since the remastering of Ted's back catalog and it is better than I remember...still it doesn't feel like its up to his best. Love the album cover picture though...
