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 71.7/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

Excellent late eighties album, worth owning the album just for the last track on side one, 'For all Those Years'.

Good album but like many artists she peaked right at the start of her career and never came close to repeating this sort of quality

listening to this album, it's hard to believe it was written and sung by a 16-year-old girl. she's definitely got one of my favorite voices.
