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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 78.8/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 14.6.

Great chart
I´m not really sure about London Calling, first because it´s better than Bruce and Michael and second, it´from the 70s,but after i think it´s good
What nutso42 said.
This Chart wasnt the best but it wasnt the worst either
Why are so many people convinced Springsteen's best album from the 80's was Born In the U.S.A??
