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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 79.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.9.

I wasn't sure how a Jazz-Rock cat like Sco' would blend with the Southern Rock Mule, but the result is nothing short of spectacular. The cuts are long-winded, so you have to like jam bands, but if you do, this is a great disc.
For fans of long guitar jams this is heaven. Two masters in Scofield and haynes just working their craft. A perfect record to me just a real treat.
Went into this not knowing what to expect but it's a joy.
