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 70.6/100, a mean average of 68.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.9.

This record is a kick. Fun, irreverent and a bit of a throwback. A great party album for adults.

Nel 1981 il punk è morto ed anche la new wave non si sente molto bene ? Non c'è problema, si può sempre realizzare un disco di swing, ad esempio, a patto di essere in possesso di una buona dose di inventiva, di genio anche, ma soprattutto di una adeguata faccia da schiaffi. Naturalmente le canzoni devono essere originali, chè rifare i vecchi pezzi swing sono buoni tutti; inoltre ci vogliono dei musicisti con i controcoglioni, in grado di seminare in velocità pure il migliore ( o peggiore, a seconda dei punti di vista ) degli onanisti metal. Quel disco è stato fatto e si chiama "Jumpin' jive" ed è uno dei migliori e dei più frizzanti di Joe Jackson.

If you can't jive with this album, you're an un-hep maniac. (Edited)
