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 80.6/100, a mean average of 80.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.2.

Instrumental track that’s a blues standard. It demonstrates some great blues guitar from Clapton but it’s not all about Clapton on this track. The rhythm section is also on fire here but….
I suppose at the end of the day, it’s Clapton’s playing that stands out. It really does show what a phenomenal guitar player he was when he stuck to the “true” blues.
Hard to believe that it’s the same guy who made albums like Back Home, Pilgrim, August and Happy Xmas. So sad
