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)

In my opinion, better than the album version. The solo that plays instead of the guitar solo from the album fits better with the tone of the song.
A brilliant song of course, but in my opinion, this single version is inferior to the one on the album, the guitar solo isn't as prominent as it is on the LP, but it's still wonderful. A hymn for the rock'n'roll generation.
