Rating metrics: Help 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 58.4/100, a mean average of 55.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 55.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

This album is good (crappy cover aside) I listened to it today and has stood the test of time it is not a patch on his early 80's stuff but the tracks Mona Lisa's & Mad Hatters (pt. 2) & I Don't Wanna go on With You Like That stand out from the rest of the album which is better than most of his other albums in the 80's.
