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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.9/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

“I listened to this three days ago but neglected to write about it then, so unfortunately it's not the freshest in my mind. But I did enjoy this a lot, and found it to be a very interesting blend. A pretty free-form combination of folk musics with a good deal of jazz mixed in. It's beautiful stuff…”

I haven't done it, but this is, what I imagine an ayahuasca experience sounds like. Disintegration, processing, then life-affirming reintegration. The second half of the album very much reminds of me of what King Gizzard specializes in, I have no doubt they own the rare first pressing.

An experimental/psychedelic and formerly rare cult classic album by the musicians from Brazil's Northeast. Lula, from Pernambuco, had released an album but his carrer wouldn't take off; Zé, from neighbouring Paraíba, was just starting his recording career and would become a household name in the next years, during his solo stint (he's still active in 2022, almost 50 years later).

This album is a must for people who like to "trip" (with or without "chemical additives") when listening to music.

Ouro fino do experimental e do psicodélico.
