Rating metrics: Help 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 68.2/100, a mean average of 66.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.0.

This is an extremely cute and unique record and really creates this feeling of nostalgia even if you have never heard the album before. My favourite part is the vocal harmonies as it really creates this atmosphere of innocence and makes you not have a care in the world. It really creates a sense of bliss and is an amazing atmosphere to immerse yourself in as it makes you feel like a kid again. While the overall quality isn't incredible and some songs nearer the start are quite weak it is still a great record to enjoy. Definitely a record worth listening to as it just creates joy.

Beautifully arranged (perhaps second only to the Carpenters), wonderfully harmonized and evocative in its celebration of childhood - an essential LP for big kids and their little kids too. I'm totally and utterly hooked by this sunshine-pop masterpiece, and if your mind is wired in a similar way perhaps you will be too...
