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 67.4/100, a mean average of 63.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.7/100. The standard deviation for this track is 16.7.

'Sleep Tonight' is not quite the last tack. As a tribute to the recently departed Ian Stewart (loyal servant, disgracefully treated by Andrew Loog Oldham) we have a brief snippet of Stu on the piano and although it's hard to rate as a track, it's a fitting way to close proceedings. RIP big Stu.

Just a very slight recording of the late Ian Stewart on piano. A nice bluesy roll, nothing more, nothing less, but a sweet little tribute to the unofficial Rolling stone. RIP Stu.
