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 72.3/100, a mean average of 70.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.6.

“The Works”part 2 as far as I’m concerned. No clear thought process just another sales product.
Unfortunately for all great bands their material is marched out in stupid compilations by the label(s).
Love all the songs but as a compacted view of Pink Floyd’s 70s material this is neither for a completist or a newbie who just heard the Wall. Someone looking for Another Brick In The Wall pt.2 might be aghast at One Of These Days. Fail. I would listen to it because I’m a huge fan but why would I buy it when I have the albums?

Really odd abbreviated Greatest Hits collection from an anti-Greatest Hits band clearly aimed at the American buying public following The Walls breakthrough in that part of the world

This compilation really is a worthless relic of the past in the modern digital age and especially since Floyd has a great double disc best of collection (Echoes) and a decent single disc best of (A Foot in the Door). All great songs on here but it’s redundant and not a particularly interesting track list. The only redeeming factor of this collection is the re-recorded version of Money which is dope.
