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 69.2/100, a mean average of 68.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Released thirty years after 'Kind Of Blue', the fact that this album still sounds fresh and 'alive' is a testament to an amazing artist. Superb musicianship all round, I love the almost funk elements the slap bass adds. This is accessible jazz which fully completes the picture for me, where bands like Gong, Zappa, Special FX, The Square and artists like Courtney Pine and Pat Methney have all built jazz into differing styles to a greater or lesser degree.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
