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 is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.2/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

I genuinely appreciate a compilation with the confidence to tell its story in 10 songs.

Una recopilación básica y elemental (que se vería completada en ediciones posteriores con un número de temas muy superior), pero que cumple bien su función de recoger en un mismo volumen un puñadito de temas fundamentales en la carrera de Green.

R&B sounds great at times. Here's Al Green who is considered one of the R&B masters.

I almost picked "I'm still in love with you" or "call me" as they are my favorite Al Green albums, but there are so many great songs on this that I had to pick this album and include an Al Green album on my chart. "Love and Happiness" is my favorite Al Green song. Did not make the white charts but was huge on the soul charts.
