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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.9/100, a mean average of 80.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

This album is too short for a classical album. This is high ranked on this site, is all they used to play on classical radio, and was my weirdo conductor's favorite symphony (in my youth orchestra). I don't know what the big deal is. I've heard all nine Beethoven symphonies and 2,3,4,6,7,8, and 9 are all better. I guess there is no accounting for taste.
The best version of Beethoven's legendary symphony!
