Rating metrics: Help 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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 73.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Maybe Peter Frampton should have just made live albums. Before he was a teen idol, he was a member of Humble Pie. On their 5th album, the band, led by former Small Faces guitarist Steve Marriott, recorded 7 songs (only one original) for a sprawling, jammed out, boogie laden 2 record live set. This is about as hard as anyone rocked in 1971...it's loud and the guitar work is sometimes amazing. Frampton keeps Marriott balanced, and the rhythm section is drum tight. Unfortunately, there's excess here...Marriott, with his awful voice, desecrates Muddy Water's "Rolling Stone" with no shame, and the 23 minute "I Walk On Gilded Splinters" proves that Humble Pie was no Allman Brothers Band.

Frampton left just before the album was released to start a puzzling solo career. He never rocked this hard again. It's worthwhile, if for nothing else, to see what he was capable of besides "I'm In You". Marriott died in a fire in 1991, just as he and Frampton had started working together again.

I still listen to this album 40 years later for the rawness. I guess it helps that I saw them live in 1970 or 71.

I'm a big fan of the Pie, and saw them 'live' a few times but,this album is vastly overrated imho. Sure the band are as tight as a duck's arse, Frampton's guitar playing is excellent, and Marriott's brilliant as usual. My bug is that It rambles a bit too much :-(

A freakin' heavy rock album. These guys were like heavy metal R&B; and the combinations of the alternating voices of the two guitarists & the bassist works really well. I just wish there were more of their originals on it instead of 8-15 blues jams. Still a badass live album.

After listening to 'I'm Ready' I have put this on my wishlist. Something is going on there that sounds special.
