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 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

This album have a great variety in the tracks. Even though there are some jazzy and some more country-inspired tracks on here, it's the 3 amazing tracks, Still Waters, Wordmule and the perfect A Perfect Day To Chase Tornadoes that makes this album as good as it is. A Perfect Day To Chase Tornadoes is one of the best tracks ever made.
