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 69.9/100, a mean average of 68.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.4.

Bonnie Raitt's a treasure and there are some great songs here. Not all of them.

Raitt had been around a long time when this album made its appearance on many tops of the year charts. There was plenty of quality simmering on her earlier albums, and this one bottled what had been spread over her catalogue.
The lady deserved a big paycheck. That said this record is a sell-out.

Oddly catchy, even though I don't usually like prepackaged stuff like this.

How can you not love Bonnie? It's an oldie but a goody.
This is payback.

Picked this off Rolling Stone's top 500. First song is really good, and the lyrics hit you. It was such a good beginning that I thought this might be a decent album. But sadly the other 10 or so songs are garbage.
