Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! - The Rolling Stones In Concert

Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! was released in 1970 as the first official live album by The Rolling Stones. It was recorded primarily at New York City's Madison Square Garden in November 1969, serving as a documentation of their first American tour in three years. The album captured a pivotal moment in the band's history, showcasing the transition between the blues-rock foundations of their earlier work and the more polished, arena-ready sound that would define their peak commercial era.

The iconic cover features Charlie Watts accompanied by a donkey, a visual inspired by a line from Bob Dylan's 'Visions of Johanna'. The photograph was taken by David Bailey and captured a certain gritty, rock-and-roll aesthetic that complemented the raw energy of the live performances. Upon its release, the album was met with widespread critical acclaim, often cited by critics and fans alike as one of the finest live rock albums ever recorded, perfectly encapsulating the band's stage presence at the turn of the decade.
