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 has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 78.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.2/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.5.

Has a Dennis Wilson flavor but sounds a lot like ‘Doctor My Eyes’. The Byrds covered ‘Jamaica Say You Will’ from the same Jackson Browne album that has ‘Doctor My Eyes’ on it 2 years earlier so that makes sense.
It sounds like it belongs on the 'Byrdmaniax' album; it has the bad echo chamber production that Melcher used when he mixed the other album. I wonder why they stuck with that on this track. Maybe it was already recorded, and they tossed it on. I know they were trying to get away from that album as much as possible.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
