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 is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.8/100, a mean average of 81.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Part the most famous western tracks of all time, part serious music, part average soundtrack music. Pretty good.

I am a hard Morricone fan, but somehow this music when listening to LP, it just does not work as a movie watching. Perhaps the film's tone seems worn out playing.
I think L'Estasi Dell'Oro (The Ecstasy of Gold) is the disc's most fascinating piece. Look at the earth Morricone Arena concert in Verona in 2002.
