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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 82.2/100, a mean average of 83.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.7.

Incredible live album definitely in band’s top 10. One of the best versions of Playing in the Band I’ve heard.

What an epic show. Highlights: Dark Star, Bird Song
The dark star from this concert is a truly religious experience. A tital psychedelic masterpiece. The other key tracks are an exploratory playing in the band with a beautiful out there and back performance. There are other must hear tracks. It the third highlight for me is a heart wrenching sing me back home, I get goosebumps just thinking about this beautiful performance. This has long been considered by advanced Grateful Dead tape traders to be the best or among the best concerts they ever played. As we know live was where this band really shined brightest. Exquisite risky amazing improvisational masterpiece. A must listen for any fan of original authentic music.
