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 79.5/100, a mean average of 79.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

A good album by the great Brazilian composer and masterful lyricist, marred by a few less exciting tracks, especially on the B side (although all of them are sophisticated and classy). Highlights are "O Que Será? (À Flor da Terra)" (with Milton Nascimento, who would record another version of this song, with different tempo and lyrics, in his great album "Geraes", of the same year) and "Vai Trabalhar, Vagabundo" (theme for a Hugo Carvana film that spawned a sequel).
