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 79.6/100, a mean average of 79.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

One of the greatest Brasilian albums of all time. Samba, rock, orchestral melding beautifully. Pega a Voga, cabeludo is one of the liveliest, most joyous sounding songs I’ve ever heard.

Together with Caetano's 1968 album, it represents the first wave of tropicalist albums.
