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 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.1.

Amazing live album

Shame about the studio version of Wild Boys in the middle ???

This is DD at their best - the sound production is killer - just listen to the bass - I never understood that when they had found this fantastic sound production on a live record why they didn't carry it on to a later studio album??

A great selection of some of their best tracks up to that point in their career

Good live album for a group that didn't really "rock". Gave them a 5 point rating bump for awesome studio track "wild boys".
