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 66.7/100, a mean average of 64.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.1.

I have just picked up a near mint copy on vinyl for 3.99 and it play like new! So happy to add this classic album to my eighties vinyl collection. 'China in Your Hand' is the hit most people will resonate with but rest of the album stands up pretty well. Can see this being played fairly regularly as we head towards the summer months. Winter is my prog and metal season!

Some pretty standard rock songs, not bad but only 'China in your Hand' really stands out.
