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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 72.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.2.

Mark me among the minority - I don't object to Sinatra's monologue at all. In fact, I think it captures the time, place and performer perfectly - which is what a Live album is supposed to do, isn't it? The Count Basie orchestra sounds terrific and Sinatra is in good voice (although rough in a couple of spots). The standards from Sinatra's handbook are all here and they are presented well. I am not necessarily a Sinatra fan, but this is how I picture Frank Sinatra to be.

Not amazing, but good, although that monologue could have certainly been edited out. The rest is competent, but definitely not spectacular. Still enjoyable though.

I am a big fan of both Mr. Sinatra and Mr. Basie and I should like this album. For some reason I don't. Maybe it's to much Sinatra and not enough Basie or the boring monologue. Maybe they just weren't synching that night.

I am not a big fan of live albums, this one is an exception. The epitome of jazz vocals. The "monolog" is not that great though.
