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 1% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 84.5/100, a mean average of 85.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.6/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 12.5.

An absolute genius. I don’t necessarily love everything that he’s ever done but so innovative and unique. An artist like this comes along very rarely. Tilt is a masterpiece

Such a shame he doesn't get the recognition he deserves on this site.
Rest in Peace, Scott Walker

He has released some of the best albums of the 60's, 90's and 00's. The only solo artists on his level are David Bowie, Brian Eno, Tom Waits, Prince, and Nick Drake and if I had to rank my greatest/favorite artists of all time, Scott Walker would be either #1 or #2. Basically, this guy is a musical genius

One of the most innovative artists of all time. He's a musician's musician. Bowie and Eno listen to him for inspiration. Easy 100/100.
