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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 75.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

Another welcome addition to Browne's superb '70s output. It's solid all throughout with what you expect: Browne's storytelling lyrics and emotive vocals. The highlights would be his version of Take It Easy (a bit more subdued than the Eagles classic), the beautiful These Days, the uptempo rocker Redneck Friend, and the ending epic title track.
Not quite as good as Late for The Sky, but a close second. Save Redneck Friend and Ready or Not, this is a perfectly written album with wonderful flow, folk instrumentation and melodies.
A good album, I wore this record out when it was first released. It's better than his debut and almost as good as "Late For The Sky".
I don't find it disappointing at all. Nice harmonies, great guitars (shows David Lindley's debut on Pedal Steel) and good vocals by Browne. "These Days", "Our lady of the well" and the title track are brilliant tunes.

My favorite out of all of Browne's work, and in my opinion one of the most overlooked LPs in Rock

This is a somewhat disappointing follow-up to Browne's superior first album, and not as good as his third, Late for the Sky.
