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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.4/100, a mean average of 78.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.8.

I have never warmed up to BOC live recordings that much. I prefer the studio versions to almost every one of these. It does start out well though. I love what they do here with "Dominance and Submission" and "Dr. Music." Good solid recording though.

BOC is one of the few groups who can do live versions of their songs which are totally unique while still remaining true to their original versions. They are also rare in that they make live albums which capture the energy and uniqueness of their live performances. This album is a perfect example of both those unique characteristics and stands as an example of everything a live album should be.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
