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 68.4/100, a mean average of 66.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.2.

Many decry this as Santana going pop, but that is both unfair and incorrect. The great non-mainstream Afro-Caribbean rhythms are still there in force and the musicianship is as tight as ever. It may have more mainstream listenability than the typical Santana album, but it in no way forsakes that Santana uniqueness. While it may be more arena-rock, Alex Ligertwood's vocals make the perfect companion to these excellent songs, and the dude has great range with magnificent clarity.

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 :(
