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 5% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 80.7/100, a mean average of 79.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.8/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.8.

A change of style after the intro tracks.

Shake your hips gives us all a chance to catch our breath. A brooding and hypnotic track it's a lovely come down after the breakneck speed of the first two tracks.

Excellent cover of a song by Slim Harpo. There's another outstanding cover on this album, "Stop Breaking Down", a tune by Robert Johnson.
