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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.5/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

“Got this to match along with a long time favorite I already had (Here's Little Richard)... Haven't really gotten into anything much past these two besides comps. Any recs or is history pretty accurate when they say he exploded in the beginning, but the magic didn't last? (my attempts in the past…”

At first, you'll think this is the greatest album ever, but most of the album is decent filler while there are only a few fantastic tracks.

A worthy follow-up to his brilliant debut record, this one's also filled with the same amount of vigour and unabashed fun. Excellent!
