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 72.9/100, a mean average of 71.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

Telling Stories was released in 2000 and would be TC’s album number 5 a full 12 years since her incredible debut broke on a global scale. Telling Stories is her best album since that debut with a richer more lush production and great lyrics. If you’re looking to dig deeper into Chapman’s catalogue I would strongly recommend you start here with Telling Stories, it’s a really solid album.
