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 69.6/100, a mean average of 67.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

A great collection of Standards ballads sung with great sensitivity by Sinatra and played with sweet and gentle arrangements by Nelson Riddle. Sinatra selected a collection of songs he had sang early in his career,that were rearranged with warm and cheery textures. Unlike his previous ballads albums, NICE 'N' EASY doesn't have a touch of sorrow. The interpretations of some songs come close to perfection: from the warm of "That Old Feeling", "You Go to My Head" and "Nevertheless" to the light and very relaxed title track.
