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 71.1/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Hard to say what's my favourite Bee Gees album; in the end, slightly better than Odessa, i chose this: a peaceful mix of psychedelic, prog, folk and whatever: not the most unforgettable album of anyone's life, but deserves a listening.
