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 72.9/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

No banger but solid stuff.

Hard Promises was a standout album with no standout tracks. Southern Accents has standout tracks, but overall is not a standout album.
A disappointing Tom Petty album to me.
I agree, great side A, avg side B

Starts out strong with three great tracks, but then does not manage to get back up there for the remainder. Still a good mainstream midtempo rocker.
