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 10% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Queen's classic live album. It's not available as part of the band's 40 year anniversary remaster editions. I suppose in this day and age of full gigs plus DVD makes albums like this obsolete. Still, it's an enjoyable record, with some fine performances. I especially like the acoustic part of the LP, with, '39, in particular a highlight, as well as, dreamers ball, and, love of my life. It's a rollicking live album, although certainly not a great live record, but for long term Queen fans there is always a certain amount of affection for this release. A live CD/DVD edition of a live killers era gig would be more than welcome.
It's a shame this live album was produced just a little after this bands prime. Poorly recorded and mixed this is a pail reflection of the greatness that was.
very live queen
