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 73.4/100, a mean average of 73.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

Literally my favourite album of all time. The title track in particular is a brilliantly composed and played track which just oozes style and sophistication. Big city funk as good as it gets. Booker's organ-grinding is utterly inspired and totally compelling.
Innovative soul/funk from a great band.

Green Onions may be more popular mostly because of the tittle track but this one is way better.
