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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Carole has made another solid album with sweet pop songs, but this album lacks the real bangers. A bit of too-sweet songs reaching out for adult audiences lacks the final touches. A solid 4-star effort from her.
Not featuring the massive singles of her Tapestry album, this 1973 release from songwriter/singer Carole King features 13 tracks of the same piano driven pop which were also splendidly contained on the aforementioned million seller. Despite the lack of singles, King delivers each of these tracks with the same enthusiasm and soul which were a part of that massive hit. An enjoyable snapshot of the era in which it was produced.
