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 69.1/100, a mean average of 66.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.5.

I'm not a big fan of Poco but this particular album (Legacy) I had on CD and loved it. Recently, I found it used in a record store and there was a note inside sleeve. I researched the band and discovered the note was written by Rusty Young who passed in 2021. He was a founding member and frontman who played pedal steel guitar...thought that was pretty cool!
