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 77.2/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.1.

I was a bit hesitant at first to see how Prince’s vault will be handled by his Estate but this is really well done. The songs don’t sound like demos more like album quality. There are many hits here for other artists and to hear these songs performed by Prince only enhances them.
Maybe Prince was to bored of these songs, or thought they didn't reach high enough to record them. Is he right? My first listens tells me he sometimes is and at other times I just don't know. For me it often sounds like world class funk or soul. Right now I place it on third place in his catalogue, after Purple rain and Sign O' the times.

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 :(
