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 65.3/100, a mean average of 64.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.4.

For years, I thought this was the best album of 1986. Only over time have I grown to love Genesis' Invisible Touch more but this album is solid. Girl Can't Help It, Positive Touch, Raised On Radio, and Be Good To Yourself are the best on the album.
Fine, quality collection of the songs. Was the first album I bought from them, getting to know their recordings then inspired. Perfect album, the musical pleasure simply...
Not their best but still a pretty decent album. Girl can't help it still sounds fantastic.
