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)

This track has a Bayesian average rating of 76.9/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.9/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.7.

Harrison leads in typical Chuck Berry style with raw guitar energy and rock n roll swagger. (Edited)

A decent cover of Chuck Berry's classic rocker, with George Harrison on lead vocals. Fun and a good way to fill up the record, the Beatles were always better at pure energetic rock'n'roll than they were with the more conservative genres. Enjoyable track. (Edited)
