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 has a Bayesian average rating of 73.4/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

I like Levon, but this is just dull, obvious, garden variety musical purism with nothing new or fresh to bring to the table. If you have even a passing familiarity with traditional folk, blues, and country musics, then you will have heard stuff that sounds exactly like this a million times before. So why all the fawning praise for something so pointless?

As solo Band members go, I'll take Robbie Robertson's oft-maligned (but much more interesting) pop "sell-out" material over this any day.
