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)

This artist is rated in the top 5% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.6/100, a mean average of 77.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 18.3.

Don't hear Zevon talked about anywhere near enough. His work was often backed by classic 70s soft rock flavours, but there was a darkness to the lyrics that I don't hear in many other songwriters of the era. Excitable Boy (the song) is about a necrophiliac murderer, for crying out loud. And there's a song on that album about a soldier who gets his head blown off and ends up haunting the guy that killed him. Zevon's dark stories have been with me a long time, and I love them dearly - I've only heard his first couple of albums, but he deserves more love based on those alone.

Genius singer-songwriter. Still sadly underrated. Fantastic lyrics. Much missed.
