Rating metrics: Help 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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.1/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.5.

CD2 covers the Hunky Dory / Ziggy period and the crunchy raw sound really works well. Energetic covers of Velvet Underground's Waiting for the Man and White Light/White Heat are also great.

If you like this period of Bowie - listen to this!!

A great record for Bowie fans. It's well produced and spans a good portion of his career.
