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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.0/100, a mean average of 76.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

Good album. Really good songs including, jump into the fire, coconut, and off course the Badfinger cover, without you. This is one of those albums where you don't realise how many songs you know from it until you hear it. Underrated.
open your ears, hearts, minds and wallets and freaking ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Clean, enjoyable, and clever folk-pop. Pop in the early 70s summarized in one pretty awesome package!
talent. songs. style. nothing remotely like it anymore. shame.
Look this one up in the dictionary under infectious.
