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 is rated in the top 9% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 79.0/100, a mean average of 81.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.4.

In 1975, Warner Brothers had difficulty in marketing Little Feat amid the crappy music of the time...In spite of that LF did very well, at least in Cincinnati until Lowell George died in 1979..very sad..so much potential. in 1978, our 3rd best selling album was "Waiting for Columbus". (we were the 2nd largest record department(in sales) in the midwest. Tower records in Chicago was #1, according to the Warner Brothers Rep).

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 :(
