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 60.5/100, a mean average of 58.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 58.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.8.

Other Voices at least showed they had some gas in the car without Jim, unfortunately full circle shows the guys are empty.

Competent at best the truth is the songs are below average, for a band that should be more then average.

So they got lucky and had one good album without Morrison but this one proved they are not The Doors without him and wisely shut it down after this.

The Doors have closed: simply not the same without Morrison.
