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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

One of the lesser interesting tropicália albums I've heard. Clara, Tropicália, Soy loco por ti, América, and Alegria, Alegria are the tracks to pick out if we're being scrutinizing.

Dos álbuns tropicalista este é o que mais apresenta seus elementos. Gigante.

Another album that, while interesting at times, I can't imagine ever actually choosing to listen to.

Yes, it can get a little ridiculous in its final acts, but you have to admire it as an artistic statement. A radical and fresh mixture of Brazilian rhythms and rock music.
