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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

I love the musicianship on this album, and Hazel's vocals are so damn cool. This album has so much class. Great production too.

A hell of a lot more people should know about this awesome album.

This is a tremendous album, really suave and smooth. I'm not sold on all the vocals or the lyrics - that said, California Dreamin is utterly perfect. The overall tone is just incredible, so killer. I'm not really sure how to motivate it any further other than to say that it isn't a very difficult album to get into, just put it on and jam out, it's very aesthetically pleasing.
