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 72.2/100, a mean average of 72.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

Wow, do I not understand the low ratings people are giving this. 50???? That is ridiculous. This is Jaco with a tight big band that includes names like Randy Brecker, Bobby Mintzer, Peter Erskine and Don Alias (Weather Report), friggin' Toots Thielemans, live and rockin' on a well-sequenced setlist of standards and originals. There's a steel drum solo on Giant Steps! What on earth is not to like???

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
