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 81.2/100, a mean average of 80.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

I love the music here but as half the album consists of music off of classic Who albums, I’m left wanting a better tidy up record.

A great collection of Who material. Nice to have the non album singles on a nice little package. Highly recommended.

Greatest compilation ever because it captures the early Who perfectly, better than High Tide for The Rolling Stones

Amazing album! A great selection of songs which will grace any collection! Substitute, I Can See For Miles, I'm A Boy, My Generation and Pinball Wizard were my favorites.
