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 72.3/100, a mean average of 72.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

I saw Old Crow Medicine Show perform live in support of this album at the Fillmore in San Francisco, and at the time I thought it was one of the most enjoyable, most authentic musical experiences I've ever had. Some of the luster has come off the band for me since then, as I saw Willie Watson play solo in Boulder, and found him annoying and affected. But I still really like Big Iron World, which holds up as a strong collection of acoustic blues, bluegrass, and jug band tunes, a mixture of originals and old standards. "Bobcat Tracks," co-written by Ketch Secor, Critter Fuqua, and Gillian Welch's longtime collaborator Davis Rawlings, is probably the most creative track here, a racing fiddle tune that celebrates finding animal tracks in the snow and the stories they reveal (and sometimes conceal).
