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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.1/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

AKA "The Pussy Album" (more people know the cover _ censored at the time _ than the songs).

In her 4th record, the great singer ditches rock'n'roll and returns to more Brazilian sounds, including the classic "Desafinado" and more recent songs from friends like Caetano, Macalé and Melodia. There's also the Paraguayan guarania that give the record its title and the Portuguese folk song "Milho Verde", my personal favorite.

Solid LP from beginning to end, before her more pop oriented period.
