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 65.7/100, a mean average of 62.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.2.

“first listen mostly great stuff apart from Dylan's vocal on Knockin' On Heaven's Door. Sheesh! He sounds in pain I don't normally like Dylan live albums post-1960s. His 60's live albums are great but after that not so much imo. Great to hear Jerry Garcia on guitar Good collaboration overall”

I've found this album quite dull & disappointing ~ probably the least interesting of all Dylan albums. If you never listen to the album you will miss out on ZILCH in the Dylan story.

Not as good as it should be, the record store day tie dye vinyl is pretty cool looking though, if you like colored vinyl.
