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 70.4/100, a mean average of 67.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

there are 1/2 dozen songs I like from BTO so I decided to give the album a spin on Spotify figuring maybe I am missing something. As an example, I really dislike country music but Shania Twain's Come On Over is one of my all time favorite albums. So it is possible to dislike a genre in its entirety but come across a gem

This statement begs the question, why purchase or even listen to the album? Your rating certainly does not qualify as being objective.

Outside of Four Wheel Drive this album really grates on me.. in a bad way. I am not a fan of blues rock to say the least
