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 has a Bayesian average rating of 68.8/100, a mean average of 66.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.6.

Willie Nelson's best strength is songwriting and his vocals are not particularly exceptional. So when he produces a set of covers, and in this case standard torch songs, it's underwhelming when stacked against a version with a talented singer.
Not recommended.
The sequel to Nelson's Sinatra tribute album My Way is probably a bit more playful, but mostly an equal. Pleasant listen.
