I would say this is true for the live version on "On Your Feet..."  The
studio version is somewhat "sour" sounding to my ears.  Especially the
"evil sound" which is made far too evil by Eric's out-of-tune
accompaniment to the organ! ;-)  And the live version showcases the
band's tongue-in-cheek nature, "Hey Lou- loverboy" and "And he don't
mean Reed" come to mind.  The improv between Buck and Al top it all off.

In this case, I'd have to say yes and no.
