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 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.2.

Great guitar player, arranger, and all round musical genius... But never appeared confident as a front man. Some great guitar playing on this album though. If you're a Bowie fan, I would recommend this album, as Ronson was the sound of the Spiders from Mars.

A shame that this album went under my radar up to now. Great stuff!
You could call it a Bowie clone, but that wouldn't do Mick Ronson justice, as he was father of the Ziggy Stardust sound as much as Bowie was.
