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 71.4/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.0.

Baker knows how to set a mood, and she does so again here on her fourth album. This disc has all the hallmarks of a great Baker album. There's calm, soothing ballads by the handful, a couple of thumping up-tempo numbers and tremendous singing all through out.

A great soul/jazz album from the amazing Anita Baker. She has a truly soulful voice that transcends genres this her 4th album is her 2nd best after Rapture. Soul's Inspiration, Fairy Tale, Lonely & No One To Blame are the best tracks but the whole album is great late night listening.
