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 71.8/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

A really great album filled with simple and catchy tunes. I loved this in elementary school but doesn't quite captivate me as much anymore, but still a solid album.

I remember being blown away by this cd when it came out. "Union Jack", "Rewind", "James Brown" and "House Arrest" should've been hits in their day. Dunno what they were thinking back then.
