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 70.1/100, a mean average of 68.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Diana Ross released 3 studio albums before embarking on the filming for Lady Sings The Blues. This the third is the best of that period. This album is mostly Ashford & Simpson songs Surrender being one. There is also a great cover of the Four Tops Reach Out I'll Be There which gets the same treatment as her cover of Ain't No Mountain High Enough from her debut album. Also contains one of my all time favourite songs Remember Me. A really good album and still one of her best.
