Vintage 'Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out' Rolling Stones in Concert
`Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!´: The Rolling Stones in Concert is a live album by The Rolling Stones, released 4 September 1970 on Decca Records in the United Kingdom and on London Records in the United States. It was recorded in New York and Maryland in November 1969, just before the release of Let It Bleed.
Many, including The Rolling Stones, consider this to be their first official full-length live release, despite the appearance of the US-only Got Live If You Want It! in 1966 as a contractual obligation product. One reason for releasing a live album was to counter the release of the Live'r Than You'll Ever Be bootleg recording of an Oakland performance on the same tour, a recording which was even reviewed in Rolling Stone magazine.
Having not toured since April 1967, The Rolling Stones were eager to hit the road by 1969. With their two most recent albums, Beggars Banquet and Through the Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol. 2) being highly praised, audiences were anticipating their live return. Their 1969 American Tour's trek during November into December , with Terry Reid, B.B. King (replaced on some dates by Chuck Berry), and Ike and Tina Turner as support acts, played to packed houses. The tour was the first for Mick Taylor with The Rolling Stones, having replaced Brian Jones shortly before Jones' July death; the performances prominently showcased the guitar interplay of Taylor with Keith Richards.
The performances captured for this release were recorded on 27–28 November 1969 at New York City's Madison Square Garden, while "Love in Vain" was recorded in Baltimore, Maryland on 26 November 1969. Overdubbing was undertaken during January and February 1970 in London's Olympic Studios. No instruments were overdubbed, although on bootlegs, examples are known of Keith Richards trying out different guitar parts (e.g. a guitar solo on "Jumpin' Jack Flash").[citation needed] The finished product featured new lead vocals on half the tracks, and added backing vocals by Richards on several others.[citation needed]
A third guitar is audible in the center channel during "Little Queenie". This instrument must have been overdubbed as none of the 1969 supporting musicians played guitar.[citation needed]
Some of the performances, as well as the photography session for the album cover featuring Charlie Watts and a donkey are depicted in the documentary film Gimme Shelter, and shows Jagger and Watts on a road in Birmingham, UK, in early December 1969 posing with the donkey. The actual cover photo however was taken in early February 1970 in London, and does not originate from the 1969 session. The photo, featuring Watts with guitars and binoculars hanging from the neck of a donkey, was inspired by the lyrics to Bob Dylan's "Visions of Johanna" (although these lyrics refer to a mule).
In the Rolling Stone review of the album, critic Lester Bangs said, " I have no doubt that it's the best rock concert ever put on record."
`Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!´ The Rolling Stones in Concert was released in September 1970 - well into the sessions for their next studio album, Sticky Fingers, and was very well-received critically and commercially, reaching #1 in the UK[citation needed] and #6 in the US[citation needed] where it went platinum. Except for compilations, it was the last Rolling Stones album released through Decca Records in the UK and London Records in the US before launching their own Rolling Stones Records label.
The title of the album was adapted from the song "Get Yer Yas Yas Out" by Blind Boy Fuller. The phrase used in Fuller's song was "get your yas yas out the door".[
All songs by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, except where noted.
This is a near mint copy of the album on London Records with a Decca sleeve. The cover has a bit of wear but is in truly great shape. The vinyl is near mint.
This record is from my brother's estate. He was born in 1950. My brother was an audiophile. He would record his albums on reel to reel and then put them away. Always upright, always snug, not super tight, against other albums. He always took the best care of his vinyl and it shows. Unless otherwise stated the vinyl on this album is very close to mint.
