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 is rated in the top 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

An absolute gem of a live album that includes Ian Hunter and Mott The Hoople hits along with 4 new recordings that are worthy of mention. Mott The Hopple is most known for All the Young Dudes an album produced by David Bowie. Ian Hunter was the singer/songwriter and went onto a solid solo career often playing with Mick Ronson formerly of David Bowie.
