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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.4/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

Too much of a good thing?? Few too many 3* songs that are pleasant enough but don't really go anywhere -- also some strong stuff here too - would have made a superb little 38-40 minute LP with some judicious editing..
Posiblemente, el mejor trabajo de McCartney desde la primera mitad de los 70.

One of those albums I already own for a bit but which got a bit snowed under and undeservedly so. After listening to it again this is to me Paul McCartney's last great album in which he turns simple songs like Young Boy and Beautiful Night into irresistable little gems.

Paul's best studio release since Tug of War in '82. There isn't a bad song on the album. Paul recruited his friends Jeff Lynne, Steve Miller & Ringo on some of the tracks. Later this year a box set remaster is planned for release.

"Flaming pie" è un disco che reclama rispetto già a partire dalle circostanze dalle quali è nato ( la morte della moglie Linda ) e quel rispetto dimostra poi di meritarlo. E' un disco serio ma non serioso, composto ma non triste. Ed è un raro caso in cui McCartney non abbonda con la dose di zucchero; merito anche della produzione di Jeff Lynne, che dopo avere rivitalizzato la carriera di un ex Beatle ( George) ci prova con ottimi risultati con un altro ( "Young boy" sa tanto di Travelling Wilburys ). Fossero stati sempre di questo tenore i dischi di McCartney !

More than just a nostalgia piece. This is actually quality - even better than most of his 70s and 80s work.
This is one of my favourite McCartney albums. It feels and sounds like the white album in so much as it a mix of rockers and acoustic dittys. Best track for me is the beautiful calico skies, which is possibly my all time favourite McCartney solo track. Other high points are some days, a lovely acoustic and orchestral ballad, the soul sounding souvenir, and opener, the song we were singing. Other standouts are beautiful night and the world tonight. The only disappointments are couple of dull twelve bar rockers, but they do suit the albums feel. An excellent record, all in all.

One of the best McCartney albums and started the beginning of a revival and interest in his music. Best tracks are Beautiful Night, Young Boy, Song We Were Singing & World Tonight. Subsequent albums Driving Rain & Chaos and Creation are also great.

"Somedays" is one of the best love songs in the world. Ever. It's so... wonderful!
