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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.6/100, a mean average of 78.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

In the midst of another personal jazz deep dive, I found this on Spotify and knew by looking at the cover alone that it was going to be amazing.

It very much is. Already one of my favorite jazz LP’s ever.

Astigmatic finely balances the line of being adventurous, wacky and far-reaching while doing so with a unique tastefulness. Everything here is dynamic and conversational and exceptional.

The birth of European Modern Jazz. Maybe he was the european Ellington, but only for such a brief time...
