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 71.6/100, a mean average of 71.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

This is a strange one, another album of cover versions, sublimely reinterpreting songs by Jefferson Airplane and Hendrix among others, stuff from all over the map, but totally disconnecting them from the originals and rehousing them as chilled-out jazz vocal mini-drama's. Beautiful guitar playing all the way through from the hugely underrated Robben Ford. I think RLJ is a brave artist, like Joni, she's never been afraid to completely alienate her audience for the sake of pursuing her artistic impulse. I know, I've seen her live a few times and she's always disappointed, but hey! Good on her. (Edited)
An album of cotemporary jazz and blues standards and a cover of Up From The skies (Jimi Hendrix). Atmospheric and best listened to at night it really allows Jones voice to shine. It flows and takes you with it, a must for fans and jazz enthusiasts.
