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)

A rip roaring start to the Beatles third album and their first film. It's full of energy with a strong beat and a great bluesy groove, totally infectious and with some superb guitar work from George Harrison it's a knockout single. (Edited)

Explosive opener with that iconic chord. Lennon's urgent vocals capture the exhaustion and joy of fame. Nice ending, quite original with the jangling guitars. (Edited)
