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 71.8/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

No particular brief against Seger; don't change the station when he comes on or anything-- but have never looked through the bins seeking his albums, really. But I did decide that "Horizontal Bop" is a keeper...

Her Strut & You'll Accompany Me are 2 of Seger's best songs. After that, the record is kinda so-so. But maybe I'm biased because I thought the 2 previous records he made were much stronger.
