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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.0/100, a mean average of 80.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

Own: superlative singles collection on the ol' wax. Note optimistic title. Pop smarts galore, underlying poignancy not unlike the Carpenters or Rembrandt. They were very possibly the best singles band of the 70s, with a handful of good album tracks. And unlike most bands they seemed to get better as they went along, soon enough dropping the Schlager tendencies. Some of it sounds like Mozart thanks to Benny.

This album has nearly all their singles on one album. The early singles are missing and Thank You For The Music which wasn't released as a single until after they split. Contains their last great recording - The Day Before You Came. A good compilation 80/100
