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 73.3/100, a mean average of 71.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

Jazz vocalist Cassandra Wilson brings a sensual, contemplative vibe to her performances on this album. Notable are her renditions of her self composed songs and a couple of covers on which she puts her own spin - "Strange Fruit" and a crawling "Last Train To Clarksville." It is on the latter song that one really is impressed with the breadth of Wilson's delivery and her interpretive skills.
