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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.6/100, a mean average of 78.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

This album is underrated! I think "Extension Of A Man" must be among top 10 albums of 1973 year.
Great album from the criminally underrated Donny Hathaway. Extension of a man, is a superb record featuring all the traits that make Hathaway such a genius. Great songs in, someday we'll all be free, the slums, and, Valdez in the country. The first orchestral track is a bit pointless and out of place, but the rest is great.
