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 68.2/100, a mean average of 67.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.2.

Not quite such an erotic cover as 'Lovehunter' but still with a very 'sexual' message. You only need to listen to the lyrics of 'dancing girls' for this to be reinforced. 'Crying in the Rain' is a personal favourite. Cracking hard rockin blues album.

Solid early Whitesnake outing. Rough production, but that's part of the album's charm vice the slick big hair production that would follow.
When you compare this album to the 1987 album it is has to be one of the most blatant examples of how much difference production can make in the quality of the final song. Two tracks were taken off this album and rerecorded to eventually become monster hits. Still this album shouldn't be overlooked because it has some good tracks in addition to those "demos".
