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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 78.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.0.

Own: US Skye promo, 1969 LP, as well as their only single. An absolute once in a lifetime planet-aligning magical event of a record. Teen girl sisters aged like twelve and fifteen or something, named (I lie not) Wendy & Bonnie Flower. The older sister (I think Wendy) wrote all these wonderful wide-eyed songs packed with melody, invention, lyricism and perfect naïveté - with a sophistication way beyond her (their) years. There's a lightness and beauty in these tracks that is hard to define, and a sweet melancholy to the lyrics. The recording is so full of space and air - the very essence of everything missing from music since the 70s. An total classic and every song is fantastic. I play it often and it always sounds gorgeous. (Edited)
