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 79.2/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

Many live albums don't really capture the energy of the band. Not the case here. One of my favorite live albums ever.

Great live album which I have on orange vinyl. The classics are all here', 'Ace of Spades', 'Overkill', 'Bomber', 'Capricorn' to name but a few. Full of energy from beginning to end.

More listenable and less abrasive than anticipated, but I'm partial to live albums in general. Great, consistently high energy.
