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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.3/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

Way too extensive.
In this style it’s impossible to not get hyper redundant and extremely boring.
Perhaps fans will like it but they need to be super hardcore fans to get throught it all without feeling exhausted :D

Ella has some incredibly long albums, the "songbook" series are typically 2+ hours, with the Ellington songbook being one of the longest. That said, while some of the other shorter ones get old after a bit (Cole Porter, Rodgers & Hart), this one is fantastic the whole way through. If you don't have 3 hours to spare to listen to this album in full, I'd recommend first checking out the final 3 songs: "Chelsea Bridge" through "The E & D Blues". Those are highlights of the album for me, give a sample of what you'll find on the rest of the album, and perfectly close the whole set.
Wanted to score higher....just not my favorite Ella Album.
