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 is rated in the top 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 72.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.0.

Indeed a collection of hits. Pretty sure you will know all of them.
Bunch of lovely best hits :))
A different collection with nice versions of every song. I like "Where do you think you´re going" more on this one.
