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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

A marvellous record by the "godfather of bossa nova", with his trademark acoustic guitar and very precise voice _ he'd be the best rapper ever if he ever rapped. His version of then recently released but today classic "Águas de Março", by Jobim, might be the best there is. Very sophisticated, but not difficult to hear.
