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 66.3/100, a mean average of 63.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

Flag marks a low point in James Taylor's career. He seems lost here, veering from a horribly disco-fied cover of "Day Tripper" to a safe but dull cover of "Up on the Roof". A high point is "Mill Worker", one of his better songs, while a low point is his "Company Man". Who wants to hear a rock star complain about the music industry?

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 :(
