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 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

I know I'm probably alone here, I think this is Elton's best album after Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.
Strong songwriting from start to finish. A true comeback.

One of the best Elton's later day albums. Some beautiful songs here.
Typical of Mr. John's later work. Some great material and some not so great. Elton is always worth a listen.

Tracks 1-3 are good but not great. Tracks 4-12 are amazing, one of the best albums he has made since 1977.
Finally Elton gets his act together and produces some great music after a 25 year hiatus
