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 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

This album has some really great moments. It kicks off with 5 really strong tracks in a row. Then we get some good sassy humor with songs like "Pink Sunglasses" and the really great "For the Birds." Those are my favorite kind of Miranda songs. It feels like there is some filler though, especially on the second disc of this double album. "Keeper of the Flame" is not the kind of song I enjoy. It's hit 'em over the head sentimentalism. While I like the album over all, I am not convinced a double album was necessary. Streamlined to the best tracks, this would be right up there with "Platinum." As it is, it shouldn't be the highest rated of Miranda's albums.
Given that this a relatively recent country release with a 94-minute run-time, it didn't test my patience nearly as much I would have expected.
