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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.5/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

God willin', is Ray Lamontagne's Americana album. A lovely collection of superb acoustic tracks. Obviously inspired by the Laurel canyon scene of the late sixties/early seventies, it's best cuts include, repo man, new York's killing me, and, this love us over. It was clear though by this time that Lamontagne had taken this music as far as it could go. Some new sounds were needed on the next record. Still, for now, this was a solid album.

A fine colection of folk songs that tend to turn a bit more to what Dylan and The Byrds used to do with a country influence, good but never a masterpiece
