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 has a Bayesian average rating of 69.7/100, a mean average of 68.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.6.

Shortlisted for album of the year at the 1979 Grammys. The winner was another soundtrack, also starring John Travolta, Saturday Night Fever (Various Artists)

Very nostalgic. Who never saw Grease back in the day? Ahhh, the memories. It's very cheesy. But cheese isn't bad every now and then.

This double album is a story of 2 (or maybe 3) parts. First, 12 tracks 1-8,20-22,24 are the ones you primarily want. And if I rated it on just those, it would be like 8.5/10. Then there's the Sha Na Na songs which are mostly adequate covers of classic songs. Then there's all the "background" tracks, which are mostly held over from the musical. Factoring all these in brings the overall rating down a bit. Not that there's anything bad here, but the musical numbers from the movie are what really stand out.

Un buen soundtrack que es afectado por bastante canciones de relleno que, si bien no son malas, en mi opinión no aportan nada a la experiencia general y solo alargan innecesariamente el mismo.

While the movie has been overplayed on television and the songs are almost cliche at the point, there's still a charm to it. The middle of the album suffers a bit with all the Sha Na Na tracks that are inferior to the 50s originals (similar to how the Saturday Night Fever album hits a rough patch midway) but the highs outweigh the lows.
