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 70.9/100, a mean average of 70.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.6.

Wee Tam by itself is a complete album, it is also the majestic peak of all hippydom. lyrically and musically it is a profound experience; hypnotic images, mind-bending spirituality, fairy-like playfulness, constant variety, but tethered by a rawness and energy. a highlight for me is the call to friends to retreat from the Winter to the singer's 'Log Cabin Home in the Sky', a song full of rustic poetry and foot-stomping violin. from beginning to end it is an experience on par with Dark Side of the Moon, Led Zeppelin IV or Blood on the Tracks - but so outside the mainstream it takes a truly free heart to comprehend its majesty. one of the best albums ever made 10/10

I think it was two albums everywhere - but they came as a double release.
