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 78.1/100, a mean average of 78.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

Another great record by Chico, with no weak tracks.
A few songs had been censored for years ("Cálice", a masterful hymn for freedom of speech, and the anti-dictatorship samba "Apesar de Você") and others come from his "Ópera do Malandro" (a version of "The Threepenny Opera"), including the highly erotic "O Meu Amor" and the saddest song I ever heard, "Pedaço de Mim", a great duet with the lovely Zizi Possi. Also wonderful are the divorce ballad "Trocando em Miúdos" and "Tanto Mar", a song celebranting the Carnation Revolution in Portugal.
A lyrical, political, funny and heartbreaking masterpiece of an album.
Highlights:
- Cálice
- O Meu Amor
- Trocando em Miúdos
- Pedaço de Mim
- Apesar de Você
