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)

An absolute genius. I don’t necessarily love everything that he’s ever done but so innovative and unique. An artist like this comes along very rarely. Tilt is a masterpiece
Such a shame he doesn't get the recognition he deserves on this site.
Rest in Peace, Scott Walker
It's Scott Walker!
One of the most innovative artists of all time. He's a musician's musician. Bowie and Eno listen to him for inspiration. Easy 100/100.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
