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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.7/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

What’s the best album no one has heard of ? Music snobs have preached the the virtues of this album for decades and with good reason. Coming out in 69 this album was swamped by the land mark releases from The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin and very much suffered as the hippie summer of love folk sound from 2 years prior was waning in popularity for an edgier harder sound
Regardless it remains a remarkable album full of passion and exceptional song writing who’s legend hopefully continues to grow with each generation

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
