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 63.1/100, a mean average of 58.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 58.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

"The iron man" ( pure questo un'opera rock, come "Tommy" ) non avrà le grandi canzoni del disco degli Who del 1969, ma possiede quella concisione che "Tommy" talvolta non ha, è realizzato con una produzione sobria ed oculata e presenta i camei di John Lee Hooker, Nina Simone e degli stessi Who, partecipazioni che una volta tanto fanno la differenza.
