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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Best tracks: Verdict, Cha Cha Loo, Not Her, Not Now. A very classy, jazzy, and chic album. Suitable for the better mid-80s late-night party re-enactments.

Ripetere un capolavoro come "Night and day" ed allo stesso tempo distaccarsene: a momenti a Joe Jackson l'impresa riesce. "Body and soul" è un gran disco di eccellenti canzoni pop con le solite striature jazz o di musica latina e con almeno un brano da alta classifica
This is a great album. The production is excellent and the choice of material is great. Joe Jackson is at the top of his form on this record.
