Rating metrics: Help 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 62.7/100, a mean average of 57.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 57.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 24.5.

One of the few Albums, that include not one weaker song. "Souls" is outstanding, but most of the other Songs should be part of every "Best of Rick Springfield". An A.O.R./Melodic Rock masterpiece, even after all those years.
