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 is rated in the top 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

Totally, this is a pleasant surprise. This album sounds awesome!, Her singing grabs you by the....b@lls
Why have I never heard of Ethel Ennis before??? If you're a fan of 50's vocal jazz, this album is a must-hear. Her voice is perfect, sultry at times, longing at others, always hitting just the right tone. The arrangements are subtle and sophisticated (with Hank Jones on piano). The production is atmospheric and timeless. And every song is a beauty. These traits combine to make this easily one of the best releases of 1955.
After this album blew me away, I set out to binge-listen to the rest of Ennis' catalog. And while her other albums don't quite match this peak, the ones I've heard are all fantastic. For an interesting contrast, I also recommend her sadly-overlooked "comeback" album, Ethel Ennis, recorded 38 years later. She's still got it! So why isn't Ethel Ennis ever mentioned when discussing the great ladies of Jazz? For what it's worth, I'll be doing my part to correct that injustice.
