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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 71.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.7.

70/100 average rating is shockingly low for this genre classic. Don't let that deter you from checking out this wonderful record.
Classic folk. 1980 almost feels like modern folk. A superb collection of songs. Very good.
