Rating metrics: Help 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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

One of the greatest to ever do it at perhaps his peak. There are some intense barrages of notes here that confuse even me, someone who has more or less studied Bonzo for 15 years.

Long? Sure. But I wouldn’t think to tell Michelangelo “that’s enough painting” or Michael Jordan to stop driving to the basket.

Bonzo was probably the greatest drummer of all time, but these solos can get boring really fast. I mean, probably fantastic to watch, but listening they are usually only so good.
