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 77.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

The 3 hits are great. The Window is good. But the rest is pretty forgettable.

Great album! Alongside Book of Dreams, it's Steve Miller's best.

Undeniably one of my favorite albums, although I recognize I am part of a very small minority. Yet I don't care. Fly Like An Eagle is equally psychedelic, bluesy, groovy and slick as rock can be. Steve Miller and crew have a kind of swagger about them that few can match.

Favourite: Fly Like an Eagle, Mercury Blues, Take the Money and Run, Serenade, The Window

Least Favourite (relatively): Dance Dance Dance, You Send Me
