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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

Purple forced me to listen to this. Im glad he did. It's unforgettable- feels like Im a Bronte heroine trying to find my way through an old haunted english manor- with demons both real and imagined.

The brilliant finger-picking guitar playing of Sarah June is intimate but at the same time expansive in the way that Neil Young's playing is. The beautiful hymn-like quality of her songs are dark explorations of the blues that also hint at lounge jazz and motown soul. Sarah June is one of the most important solo artists to have emerged in the last decade. Key track: Judgement Day.
