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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.4.

Amidst all that late eighties nonsense this was a great album that had many bangers which still can be heard in classic rock radios. His voice is also very original and soulful for that matter. I like the overall quality of this work.

I still have the original tape which I bought a few months before seeing this guy live. Although it was one of the most disappointing live performances I have ever seen, I still thoroughly enjoy this album and haven recently bought on vinyl, I am now listening to it more than I ever did.

Great debut album which made TTD a star but this was to be the peak of his commercial success. Fav tracks are Wishing Well, Sign My Name & Who’s Loving You.

Should've been the start to a stellar career. The songwriting is brilliant, the music outstanding and TTD has one of those otherworldly voices. "Rain" is the only so-so track on here. Instead, he let his ego get the better of him and he never really never did anything after this one. Still, if one is going to be a one hit wonder, this is the way to do it.

Never did anything after this but that's ok. This cd is pure excellence and brilliance.
