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 albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 71.1/100, a mean average of 70.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.2.

A simple way to enjoy jazz music to those are not into.
A precius trio drums/upright/piano making his owns songs plus eccentric covers.

Yes, the covers of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World", "Tom Sawyer", and "Life on Mars" are all great, but the original composition here really shines. 1980 World Champion is my personal favorite by the band, a great conclusion to David King's medalist trilogy. And "Physical Cities" may just be one of the most epic songs I've ever heard. "Giant" and "Thriftstore Jewelry" are also great. If you like progressive jazz, go ahead and pick up Prog.

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 :(
