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 72.2/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

The last proper album by Lou and he goes out in style. The record starts off strong with Paranoia Key of E. Rock Minuet and Like A Possum are epic songs reminiscent of Sister Ray and Street Hassle. It finishes well with Big Sky.
"Ecstasy" è buono ma non è uno dei suoi dischi migliori; se poi lo si confronta con quanto aveva realizzato appena dieci anni prima impallidisce. Contiene qualche bella canzone, un suono potente, ma talvolta sembra tirato per i capelli, allinea troppi riempitivi ( ed infatti dura troppo… ) e Lou con la voce sembra non arrivarci sempre...
The last truly Lou Reed album. Great rhytm section, great songs and production.
