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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

One of my earliest vinyl’s I bought where the acoustic guitar and lyrics make this his best album. Whenever I go through my record collection, I have to stop for a moment and think about how compassionate and soothing his music is to listen to. If you're mellow at heart, then this is one album you must listen to.
