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 69.0/100, a mean average of 67.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.1.

Non servono molti ascolti di questo "Talk is cheap" per convincersi che Keith Richards aveva centrato il bersaglio come ai Rolling Stones non accadeva da tanto tempo. C'è tutto Richards in questo album che all'epoca poteva, seppur bello, apparire datato e che oggi ha le stimmate del classico senza tempo. E che come i migliori "vini costosi" più passa il tempo e più appare irresistibile.

Not a bad album for Keiths first solo attempt. Better than anything Mick Jagger put out and also better than most Stones albums, but a bit hit and miss with some pretty dodgy 80s production in places. You Don't Move Me, his dig at Jagger, the standout track.

It is funny to think that only now (today) has risen from BEA's lists, the man's album, who started 50 years ago, his career as a band called The Rolling Stones!
