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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

One of Uncle Tupelo's calling cards was their ability to identify with the middle-class everyman, the frustration one feels at losing an economic game he never wished to participate in, as in Jay Farrar's lyrics: "You can't break even / You can't even quit the game." Farrar's singing is complemented perfectly here by Max Johnston's outstanding work on lap steel guitar. A great, and much underappreciated, song.

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 :(
