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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.7/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

Shortlisted for album of the year at the Grammys in 1990. The winner was Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
great album and the superb voice of roland gift.
She Drives Me Crazy is fantastic. That's about it unfortunately.
This record sounds dated to me today. His voice get's a little irritating after awhile.
