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 71.2/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.5.

It's not bad album but somethings wrong
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of Mark, seen him live with both Screaming Trees & Solo. Really like the guy but I don't get this album. What's the point of it. I have no problems with cover versions, Johnny Cash was a master @ them but these versions are really quite incipid. Don't hate this album but it feels quite pointless. Sorry Mark.
