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 70.1/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

“Currently Scorpions albums are the highest in my charts with this one as the first: and the highest non-Scorpions album is fairly recent: But I think indeed the main wave we non-Germans came in contact with was The Neue Deutsche Welle with bands like Spider Murphy Gang, Fehlfarben, Trio, etc. But…”
