Even if the song is lip-synched (the intro probably isn't, as ProfGAC mentions), it's still great to hear. Audio engineers consider Dreamboat Annie to be one of the best rock recordings ever. There are performances on that record that are right up there with John Lennon's "Twist and Shout" vocal. It's amazing to be able to capture that in a studio environment. And the overall sound of that record is just so big--you can really hear why so many recording artists and engineers still prefer old analog and vacuum-tube technology.
