There's only a one-man difference between the Imposters and the Attractions -- so I'd say it is pretty comparable.

I love how Letterman blows by the bassist to get to Elvis. "Excuse me..pardon me"....might as well have said get the fuck out of my way!! lol.

@spottedliver It's rock music dude, not Wagner

It's not that the rhythm section sucks, it sounds completely different because he changed the structure of the song. Dave F. is a good bassist, but it's like a different song. Elvis has done this kind of thing before; he used to play a different version of High Fidelity that was slow and brooding, much different than the Get Happy version. I like the original better, but c'mon, it's 20-30 years later! Things change, but these guys are still great!

spottedliver is right, this is messy as fuck. no way to do justice to two great songs.

Sorry, but sloppy band.
