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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

Tubular bells III is also awesome, I actually prefer it to the other two, in particular the last ten minutes of the album are amazing, someone should add it to the website.
A great musician. His first three albums are beyond praise, and I'm still curious about his activities.
Brilliant musician
