According to my ears, yeah.

The acoustic (well, largely acoustic) "I Am the One" on _Malpractise_
has an Al vocal, but I agree that Frosting it up a la "Baby Ice Dog"
in an electric tBS version would work very well!

Cheers,

ps - I've tried to convince the little band I play in to cover "I Am
the One", but haven't pulled it off (we sometimes muck around working
up "Astronomy" though).  So I did my best to compose a song that
ripped off that vibe -- I don't think I succeeded, since even the
keyboardist, who knows the Imaginos album, didn't recognize the
inspiration for my rip-off attempt. (Admittedly, it's harder to
notice the similarity in a grimy demo recording with me playing and
singing everything ... but I had to try ;)
