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)

Parts of this clearly stolen from Asturias by Issac Albeniz. However it enables Krieger to show off his undoubted ability on guitar.
Underrated
Robbie Krieger practiced flamingo guitar playing before he joined the Doors. This is where he could show that.
