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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.0/100, a mean average of 81.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.9.

Of course some of the tracks are a bit sickly sweet –but that’s the Beach Boys take it or leave it. What makes this album better than most of its recent predecessors is that it is much more consistent and is packed full of great songs. Deirdre, Tears in the Morning, Cool Cool Water and Add Some Music to Your Day mark a return to form. The album only made # 29 on the UK charts and did not make the top 150 in the US – it deserved better.
