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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 72.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.6.

Rare acoustic set from The Dead. Some classic tracks mixed in with many I am less familiar with. This is quite a relaxing listen. If you’re looking for more acoustic Dead check out the 1st set of Dick’s Picks Volume 8. I found the set list more satisfying than this.

Not my favourite but I did especially enjoy the end of the album with Bird Song and Ripple.
