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 has a Bayesian average rating of 73.1/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

The first JMJ album I bought. I purchased this on the back of the ravings about Oxygene from a French student who stayed with my family one hot eighties summer. Couldn't get hold of Oxygene at the time. Still enjoy listening to this, not my favourite album by JMJ but the sort of album you end humming to for days afterwards.
