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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.2/100, a mean average of 69.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

One of my favorite all time albums growing up.
A disappointing Billy joel album. It really was a come down after hitting those commercial heights with, an innocent man. The bridge, doesn't really contain any great tracks, although, a matter of trust, and, this is the time, are good. Modern woman is fine, there's baby grand, a jazz duet with the great Ray Charles, and Joel also goes for the epic in, big man on mulberry street, but It's all just ok. It's not quite on it. Still, it's probably better than it's follow up, storm front, but that's not saying too much. So-so.
