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 82.7/100, a mean average of 82.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 83.0/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.5.

"She Walks (Was) Like a Bearded Rainbow".
It’s quintessential Cream, an excellent psychedelic blues-rock track. Clapton brings out the wah-wah again with the band playing off each other really well.
It’s experimental, it’s heavy, Clapton's guitar is great and I always preferred Bruce on vocals. A stand out track from the album

Great sound from that guitar.
Don't know why - there are things I like on this track - but overall it just irks me somehow?

But the picture has a mustache!
The last of Disraeli gears many highlights, this song is a straight forward psychedelic hard rocker, with amazing instrumentation.

That tittle is hilarious and the song is very nice. Especially the tone of Eric Clapton's guitar.

Really heavy song. Great simple riff that grabbed my attention immediately. This is probably where Jack Bruce's vocals are at their best, imo.
