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 77.3/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.2.

blues
Muddy Waters was one of the originators of the Chicago blues, the hot, beefy, electrified blues. When he toured Britain in 1958 he caused something of a stir, somewhat similar to Dylan's 1966 tour when Dylan went electric. However, he also inspired the members of his support band who went on to form Blues Incorporated, the Rolling Stones, Cream, and Fleetwood Mac. This is a live recording of his appearance at Newport two years later, and catches him at his creative peak. Important and essential.

Blues doesn't hold my interest for long, but this is a clear master doing his thing live.

Muddy Waters' July, 1960 appearance at the Newport Folk Festival was recorded and issued as one of the first live blues albums.
