What is this term 'analytical' ?

I see this routinely in reviews & comments and so do you:

It’s too analytical. It’s so analytical that it’s not musical. Etc.

What does this mean? You can actually hear stuff? You picture math problems on a chalkboard? A shrink’s couch?

Isn’t the entire point of this hobby to hear music clearly? But apparently: not too clearly?

Seems like it means what I might think of as bright, or top heavy. Now if someone would tell me what 'musical' means, and how it's different... Who knows the brilliant Mingus (I think) quote? All together now: 'talking about music is like...'
