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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

This artist is rated in the top 8% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 77.7/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 17.3.

Not a terrible songwriter, but definitely a terrible voice. Nasal in the extreme; a sort of country Neil Young.

I love Nelson's voice and gutstring guitar playing. He's a prolific author as well & interpreter of other people's songs. Still going strong.

One of the few country singers I like. Others include Faith Hill, Johnny Cash (I think he's country) and Merle Haggard.

Willie Nelson is one of the coolest dudes on the planet. And country music does not get enough love on BEA. Indeed.
