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 70.4/100, a mean average of 68.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

I may not have listened much to the live stuff, but the studio cuts on the first side are pretty much essential. It speaks volumes that even though the purpose of this release appears to be little more than fulfilling a contract, it still includes the absolute quality of the likes of H.O.W, Dead Beat Descendant and Squid Law, which the Stone Roses borrowed heavily from on their comeback single. I have always been quite fascinated by Mollusc In Tyrol too.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
