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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.0/100, a mean average of 79.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.0.

At last, a deluxe edition, which basically makes this version obsolete, is finally available. Both nights at the Lyceum in London are now featured on an excellent release. The gigs are fairly short (first night, 60 mins, second night, 70 mins) but that's just a small quibble. What matters is that a previously great live album has now become an undisputed masterpiece and an essential release for any music fan. Absolutely brilliant.
An excellent live album featuring the ultimate version of, no woman, no cry. A 2CD re-release would be nice with the whole gig on it. This was the peak time for Bob Marley and the Wailers.

Personalmente ci sono altri dischi di Marley che preferisco a questo live, ma indubbiamente questo disco rimane un punto di svolta, nonché un live tra i migliori di sempre.
