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 68.7/100, a mean average of 67.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Some good tracks here and well worth a listen. I'm Still Standing the highlight, the final track One More Arrow is a disappointing end (Edited)

Honestly. EJ has not made bad albums ever . and this is one of his best from the eighties. (Edited)
The album has one of the strongest "Side Ones" in the history of popular music. Unfortunately, its "Side Two" is significantly weaker. Still an essential album. 9/10!
En este disco, Elton John consiguió una calidad comparable a la de sus mejores álbumes de la primera mitad de los 70.
Elton's "comeback" album. 5 tracks are excellent, the rest are decent. I wouldn't say this album has aged as well as his best 70s stuff, but its got some of the best songs of the 80s on it.
