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 is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.2/100, a mean average of 80.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.8.

There’s a lot of remarkable things about this album but one that stands out to me is Tony Williams.

This is one of the best recorded examples of Tony redefining how one can use the drum set as an instrument and as a crucial melodic device in the arrangement. All the while, still being the major driving force of the piece too. Absolutely otherworldly.

One Miles's best album from his 2nd great is a fantastic move from the postbop era to gates of fusion.
This combo can safely be named the SUPER jazz group containing late household namhes. Listening to these late-sixties albums back to back is advisable, and this album must belong to the collection of every severe jazz maniac. As well as the other ones, too.
