Get Wild & Rock-n-Roll Is Alive

Call me stupid, but I just listened to Get Wild (album version) for the first time in years and realized that it's basically the same song as Rock n Roll is Alive -- even has the same sax solo. Anyone else notice this before? Reminds me of "The Latest Fashion" vs. "My Summertime Thang" -- same kind of similar tune with different lyrics.

Actually it's the other way round.

Rock n Roll Is Alive is an extended jam on the end of a live-in-the-studio rendidtion of Get Wild.

I notice this kinda thing especially with boots. Ive got a lot of boots that sound like other songs, perhaps they were the prototypes that later got turned into other songs
