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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track is rated in the top 3% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 82.4/100, a mean average of 81.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.2.

The organ solo definitely wakes this track up a little bit. Still a welcome part of Sticky Fingers for me, but as mentioned in previous comments, a lesser moment.
It gets better after a few repeats.

Very powerful track. This is how they should have approached all their slower tracks instead of some of the goofy blues tracks they liked to slice into their sandwiches.
Wow, I was NOT expecting that organ solo out of nowhere!

A nice slower break here. Not the best song, but nicely placed on the album.
The album slows up again for this downbeat track. Some nice organ from Billy Preston but there's no denying that this is one of the album's lesser tracks. It just seems a little forced and knowing to me. Still pretty good though.

One of those great blues Rolling Stone songs with a little rock edge that makes it very interesting.
