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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

Rich Luscious and Beautiful - a pretty darn good album.
One of the best albums I own that I listen to from beginning to end. It flows so beautifully. (Edited)
Decent album which never really amounts to too much but a nice listen.
Top 25 all time albums. Musically rich, funny and divergent.

La tendenza a cazzeggiare che era tipica dei Camper Van Beethoven qui è solo latente, giusto per non prendersi mai molto sul serio. Un rock a tratti energico con puntate frequenti nella psichedelia più creativa e meno autoreferenziale che serve soprattutto da struttura ad una musica folkloristica proveniente da ogni parte del mondo. Un punto di equilibrio difficilmente replicabile… ed infatti… ECLETTICO.
