The song has a lot energy here and they're trying, but it just sounds too chaotic and messy and doesn't sound serious.
2 stars.

"(Gotta Get A) Meal Ticket" from CAPTAIN FANTASTIC AND THE BROWN DIRT COWBOY - Live at Wembley:
Good raw rocking version of one of EJ's best rock tracks. The new band had just been assembled for the big concert and what they may have lacked in polish they made up for in energy. Rock music was about attitude and the band brought it on this version. It must have been GREAT to experience live. The song is enhanced by the solid backing vocals as well.
Rating: 5 stars

4.5 stars...I must admit, I rated it thinking that we were rating the studio version. However, I'd stick with a 4.5 for the live version too. I especially like the outro, which feels like a freewheeling jam. Several of the songs on this live album were possibly improvements over their studio counterparts, and this one is no exception, though again, I'd rate both at 4.5.

Good song, this version isn't as good as the studio version but still good.
4 1/2 stars
