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 7% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 78.1/100, a mean average of 77.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.6/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 14.1.

Alan Parsons is a criminally underrated genius. If you are surprised by the amazing Sound quality of APP records, Alan Parsons was the Sound engineer on Dark Side of the Moon.
Eye in the Sky, I,Robot and Pyramid are just magic.

The band is very underrated and doesn't deserve that tons of negative labels given by critics - many great songs are spreaded at their albums, the quality of recordings is just superb, and progressive fans also will find here many interesting things.

Parsons provides progressive pop...perfectly. I ROBOT is a good place to start. "I Wouldn't want to Be Like You" is something very rare...dancable progressive that's not pretentious.
