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 69.2/100, a mean average of 68.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.9.

Ummagumma, is the dreaded two record set. Still, this one is saved by the fact they decided to give half the record over to a live recording. The live disc is great with, Eugene, and, heart of the sun, especially brilliant. The groans start on the second disc. Oh,no, this is a band without a clue, without inspiration, without direction. It's just a load of middle class musical doodling, with only Water's, granchester meadows,and, the narrow way, worth a mention. The live disc is Pink Floyd at their best, the studio disc is the band at their worst, it's obvious that they were creatively stumped by Syd Barrett's departure, and it would take another few albums to finally break those shackles off and find their own voice and character.

Wild, weird, and mostly hard to take for most folks, but still creative and interesting to many. Essential Floyd? Depends on which Floys fan you talk to. (Edited)
Definitely not one of Floyd's best, but it's definitely their most unique, with this being their most avant garde/experimental album.
Gilmour's The Narrow Way is the best track on the studio album, and Careful With that Axe Eugene is their best live track.
(Edited)
The live version of Careful With That Axe, Eugene featuring Roger Water's trademark scream is the best of the live album. There's plenty to like on the studio set, especially Rick Wright's brilliant keyboard/piano work in Sysyphus and the reflective, childhood feel of Grantchester Meadows as well. Very experimental and for me that's what makes it great. (Edited)

Ummagumma was my initial entrance into the music and creative mind of Pink Floyd. It was undoubtedly weird and different, but that's exactly what I loved about it. I played it often and regularly back in the day, and I still give it a listen every now and then. I love it. (Edited)
