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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 76.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.5.

Not many who lit their candle at both sides survived. Cale did. "Leaving it up to you" - Candle - "Close watch", that's how I imagine the flames and even if there is a certain unsteadyness in this gerat album, he never was able to represent the tensions within him better, than here. Thanks to Judy Nylon there's also a fitting artistical concept, that he sometimes missed in those years before the Yamamoto suits.
