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 71.4/100, a mean average of 71.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

Quite a difficult listen. Not one of my favourite Tangerine Dream albums. Gets played very occasionally.

TD magic up some great sounds to accompany Friedkin's flawed but watchable suspense movie, however - the music didn't quite match the visuals. Frustratingly, it would of fitted Friedkin's previous movie (the Exorcist) perfectly & far better than Mike Oldfield's folky vibes (Friedkin said that had he heard TD prior to making Exorcist he would of used them).
