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 73.2/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 5.8.

With an album composed of American and Caribbean spirituals from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries primarily concerned with the theme of death and faith it is odd the sense of calm and peace that manages to permeate this album. Whether that peace comes from the knowledge that everything dies or from the acceptance of death, Unclouded Sky is a singularly beautiful album.
