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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

Never been a big fan of Live Albums but this is great, so grateful to own this on Double Vinyl!
"The Thieving Magpie" marks the last chapter of the so-called Fish era. This is MARILLION on the peak of their career, although the band had a few bright moments without Fish, and Fish solo came sometimes quite close to the magical early stuff with MARILLION. Most songs are from the same shows that were recorded for "Real To Reel" and "Brief Encounter".

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 :(
