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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.3/100, a mean average of 83.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.4.

I don't understand what I often see as derision of Dave Brubeck's music. He was an excellent composer and interpreter. His music is often complex, perhaps too technical, to convey the emotion that other Jazz artists were able to put forth, but very enjoyable to me. This hits collection holds together very well.

As said in the previous comment, a nice collection of songs from the late Dave Brubeck and his work with the Quartet and Paul Desmond. Favorite tracks are Take Five, I'm In A Dancing Mood, In Your Own Sweet Way, The Duke, and It's A Raggy Waltz.
