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 71.0/100, a mean average of 70.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.4.

After the heydays of Elvis, Buddy Holly, and others the rock was practically dead between 1959 and 1963. Bands like Ventures, Shadows, and numerous other instrumental guitar bands were quite popular. But their popularity period was very short. Awaiting the Stones, Beatles, and Kinks. The days of these bands were over. This music and these bands in themselves are fun and they earn their place as the high school for many musicians.
