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 77.0/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.6.

Harrison leads in typical Chuck Berry style with raw guitar energy and rock n roll swagger.
A decent cover of Chuck Berry's classic rocker, with George Harrison on lead vocals. Fun and a good way to fill up the record, the Beatles were always better at pure energetic rock'n'roll than they were with the more conservative genres. Enjoyable track.
Well shit. Finally some rock n roll.
