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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 75.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.0.

1st 4 albums - masterpieces ??
Symbiosis Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath - Manfred Mann
I discovered this album while doing research into Dylan covers ~ the way MMEB take Dylan's shortest song (under 1m 30s) and turn it into a 9m 55s classic is a masterpiece. I have added this version of the song onto my 'top 100 Dylan covers' chart.
