Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!

"Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!" The Rolling Stones in Concert is the second live album by The Rolling Stones, released on September 4, 1970, on Decca Records in the UK and London Records in the US. The album features performances recorded in New York City and Baltimore in November 1969, prior to the release of Let It Bleed. It was the first live album to top the UK charts and was issued partly in response to the popular bootleg Live'r Than You'll Ever Be. This album marked the band's final release under Decca Records before moving to their own label, Rolling Stones Records.

The Rolling Stones' 1969 American Tour, which took place in November and December, featured supporting acts like Terry Reid, B.B. King (replaced by Chuck Berry on some dates), and Ike and Tina Turner. This tour was notable for introducing guitarist Mick Taylor, who had recently replaced Brian Jones. It was the last tour where the Stones performed without additional backing musicians, featuring only the core band and road manager Ian Stewart.

The live album Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! was recorded during this tour, with performances from November 27 and 28, 1969, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, and "Love in Vain" recorded in Baltimore on November 26. The album was completed with overdubs in January 1970 at London's Olympic Studios. Despite overdubbing on most tracks, the album is recognized as one of the few genuinely live recordings of its time.

The album's title, Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!, references a line from Blind Boy Fuller's song "Get Your Yas Yas Out," where "yas yas" is a euphemism for "ass." The cover features a photograph by David Bailey of Charlie Watts with guitars and drums hanging from a donkey, inspired by a line from Bob Dylan's "Visions of Johanna." The cover photo, taken in February 1970 in London, was not from the 1969 tour but was inspired by the desire to feature a different animal, originally an elephant.

The back cover, featuring performance photos and credits, was designed by British artist Steve Thomas in just 48 hours, and Jagger praised the artwork. Some elements of the album, including performance footage and cover photography, were also featured in the documentary Gimme Shelter.
