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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.6/100, a mean average of 79.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

Gavin Bryars è un musicista classico e d'avanguardia che una quarantina di anni fa registra per caso un barbone che intona una specie di gospel, solo pochi secondi. Vent'anni dopo decide di orchestrare quel canto e ci tira fuori un disco di un'ora e un quarto. Detto così sarebbe difficile trovare un motivo per ascoltare questo disco o per lo meno per ascoltarlo una seconda volta. Ma si sa come vanno queste cose: una notte di tanti anni fa fu proprio questo ciò di cui avevo bisogno di ascoltare e da allora non ho più voluto liberarmene, pur ascoltandolo con parsimonia. Negli ultimi venti minuti alla voce del barbone si aggiunge quella di Tom Waits e ci sta tutto: chi meglio di lui ha elevato l'immondizia ad arte ?

Interesting that everyone so far has rated this at 80/100. It is an interesting album, an admirable artistic statement, clever, poignant, but not something you really feel the desire to hear again.
