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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 77.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 5.2.

This isn't the strongest track on Cold Roses, but I think it belongs here if only because it's a Grateful Dead reference (Jerry Garcia called his guitar Rosebud, which I assume was itself a reference to Citizen Kane?) that beautifully complements the fantastic opener "Magnolia Mountain." Ryan Adams is a lover of rock and roll folklore, and I appreciate him for keeping the stories alive.

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 :(
