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 21% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.7/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

Weapon Of Choice aside I sit here thinking this is, in the main, a repetitive load of old trot, but if I put it into perspective I'm an old bloke listening to it through headphones on my laptop and not off my melon in a club....

Worth it just to visualize Christopher Walken's dance.

Hard task to follow up 'You've Come a Long Way Baby' with something of equal caliber. And, well... he doesn't. Not saying this is bad, just not as great. There's a decent amount of really good tracks on this, just a bit of added filler, that's all.
