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 is rated in the top 18% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.9/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

A good compilation of album tracks and Singles/B Sides 1970 - 1971 it was released in early 1972 after Electric Warrior and before The Slider. At the time it was the only album where you could get the songs Ride a White Swan & Hot Love and their respective B Sides, it was a must buy for all Bolan fans.
Raw Ramp - my favourite T. Rex song had to buy this album to get it
