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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.5.

From: SAINT KITTS & NEVIS This is Zemenfes Kidus from Saint Kitts & Nevis, which is easy and fun to say. Rarely do I stumble upon an obscure reggae album with the production quality of Bob Marley, but here we are. This sounds like it could've been huge (if it was). Not sure what happened. Can't…

But for now, giving this a chance: So far it's fantastic. A man after my own heart. Got this today: Honestly, it's the first Fela Kuti LP I've ever listened to. I think I've been missing out. A LOT.

So... On the train back from a cracking gig in Hackney, from whence I purchased: For a certain someone who lives far, far away :) But prior to this I spent the afternoon in Soho where I picked up: Original mono press And some reggae that I can't find a link for. Take that mud tha far kass.

Perfect pop. Heavenly twee. I'm running out of superlatives. This album is perfection in pleated skirts and polka-dots.
