Rating metrics: Help 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 73.1/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.9.

nothing exceptional but no howlers either - just a solid Crowes album, more than half of the songs are 4* and a handful of 3*s - bit on the 'safe' side for me, prefer when they're coming off the rails a bit more !

The overlooked album in the Black Crowes discography, this 1999 release finds the band sounding amazingly like Rod Stewart and The Faces. Thumbs up!

I still remember that this was the first CD I bought from 1999, because it was in my first slot in my 110 CD disc changer. So whenever I finished listening to whatever new disk I had put in that year, it automatically then went to the next CD, which meant going back to slot 1, and I heard Chris Robinson calling out: "Got one, two, one time, two time, three time, four time, alright baby one time..." and then it goes into the bluesy rock of "Go Faster." So of course I hate that song now, even though it would otherwise be a perfectly fine southern rock song, the kind at which the Black Crowes excel so professionally.
