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 71.4/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

La ricetta dei Blasters prevedeva il rock'n'roll degli anni cinquanta speziato di blues, di allegro folk, pure di gospel: oltre alle chitarre c'erano fisarmoniche e cornamuse e tutto era sapientemente unito.

A lot of fun, old school rock and roll and rock of different flavors, including one song penned by john mellencamp and another you might recognize from "from dusk 'til dawn".
