Rating metrics: Help 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 68.5/100, a mean average of 67.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

Some good tracks on this release which include You Won't Be There, Winding Me Up & Damned If I Do. I like the concept of this album being a women's overpowering effect on men. (Edited)

Although this isn't recognised as Alan Parsons best album I personally like it, mainly as there is a theme which runs through each track, a concept album with a difference! No weak tracks imo.

A solid record. Very enjoyable to listen to. Really no bad songs, ‘Damned If I Do’ being my favorite. (Edited)
