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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.1/100, a mean average of 69.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.6.

Best album of 1958, the year that I was born so holds a place in my heart.

Only song I really liked: Don't Take Your Guns To Town

Pretty average. Probably my least favorite effort I've heard. But then again, how do you get any better than his other efforts, right?
