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 71.8/100, a mean average of 67.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

Amazing. This guy was a big star once, and now he is totally forgotten/ignored. Okay, he was a Singles guy. But he was great. Saw him once on Stage as Che Guevara. Brilliant. Don’t know why Rock on is not as popular as Like a Rolling Stone.
