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 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.9/100, a mean average of 85.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.6.

I like the sound/atmosphere on this.
Classic track. One of the earliest albums I have with a modern sounding guitar riff and not the tinney sounding straight-played Shadows effort. Just listened to this after Moody Blues - Days Of Future Past which I enjoyed - but you would never believe they were both released in 1967 with this Cream song sounding timeless

Very nice guitar and bass on this song. A classic song.
The guitar tone is amazing. That warm breakup.
This track has a great groove.
83/100? For Cream's best song?

83/100? A classic guitar riff, a classic blues/rock song
Not too short anymore. Right length, shweet guitars, and well harmonized voices.

I absolutely love the guitar plating of Eric Clapton on this track.
Cool guitar, good voice, but too short.
