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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.1.

Quase um b side em popularidade, mas um a side em qualidade.

Highly underrated on this sight. I was surprised to see it ranked so low. For me this is easily in Bob’s top 5 albums. Positive Vibration, Roots, Rock, Reggae, Crazy Baldman, Who The Cap Fit, War and Rat Race are favs of mine. (Edited)
A bit of a low point for Marley but a decent work still. (Edited)
