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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 75.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

A good bluegrass album. It's nice to hear that true musicianship is alive. Imagine people playing instruments and just singing.

If bluegrass isn't your brand of music, you're not going to like this record. There are fiddles, banjos, etc. all over the place.

That said, the vocals here are fantastic. So are the musical performances. These are very talented individuals, so if the genre doesn't turn you off, I highly recommend this.

The Lighthouse's Tale is one of the greatest songs ever written.
