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 72.4/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

This album was written by Ashford & Simpson and is one of Diana Ross's best, contains the standout tracks The Boss, No One Gets The Prize, It's My House and Once In The Morning mostly a "dance" album except for the closing 2 ballads and the communal call for unity All for One it has stood the test of time . The "Chic" album would follow.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
