History

The Rolling Stones 

1969 American Tour trek

 during November 

into December,

 with Terry Reid, 

B.B. King

 (replaced on some dates by Chuck Berry) 

and

 Ike and Tina Turner 

as supporting acts, 

played to venues 

with all tickets sold out. 

The tour was the first

 for guitarist 

Mick Taylor 

with the Stones,

 having replaced

 Brian Jones

 shortly before 

Jones's death in July;

 this was also

 the first album where 

Taylor appeared

 fully and prominently, 

having only played 

on two songs

 on Let It Bleed. 

The performances captured

 for this release

 were recorded on

 November,27th 1969

 (one show) 

and 

November,28th 1969

 (two shows) 

at New York City's

 Madison Square Garden, 

except for

 "Love in Vain," 

recorded in

 Baltimore on

 November,26th 1969. 

Overdub sessions

 took place in

 January 1970

 in London's Olympic Studios. 

The finished product 

featured overdubbed 

lead vocals on 

all tracks except 

"Love In Vain" 

and 

"Midnight Rambler," 

added back-up vocals 

on three tracks, 

and overdubbed guitar 

on two songs

 ("Little Queenie" and "Stray Cat Blues").

However, 

this album is 

widely recognized as 

one of few actual

 'live' albums

 during this era.

GREAT SOUND !!

The album's title

 is taken from 

"Get Your Yas Yas Out, 

a song recorded by 

Blind Boy Fuller in 1938. 

In the context of

 the Blind Boy Fuller song,

 the meaning of 

Ya-Ya's

 is interpreted to mean 

‘to blow off steam’, 

‘get the energy out’, 

to 'jump and dance' 

and for having sex, 

where Ya Ya’s 

are women’s breasts. 

This is the interpretation

 as shown on the cover

 of the album, 

with Charlie Watts 

jumping around 

with a guitar and bass

 in his hands, 

an 'ass' to the left of him, 

and himself wearing a

 T-shirt with a picture 

of women's breasts. 

. The photo by David Bailey 

was further inspired

 by a line in

 Bob Dylan's song

 "Visions of Johanna":

 "Jewels and binoculars

 hang from the head of the mule"

(though, as mentioned, 

the animal in the photo

 is a donkey, not a mule). 

The band would later say

 "we originally wanted an

 elephant but 

..settled for a donkey".

Some of the performances, 

as well as one of

 the two photography sessions

 for the album cover

 featuring 

Charlie Watts

 and a donkey, 

are depicted

 in the documentary film 

Gimme Shelter, 

and shows 

Watts and Mick Jagger

 in early February 1970

 on a section of the

 M6 motorway

 adjacent to

 Bescot Rail Depot

 in Walsall, England, 

posing with a donkey. 

This is adjacent to

 where the

 RAC building now stands. 

The cover photo, 

however, 

was taken on

 June 7, 1970

 in London, 

and does not originate

 from the 

February 1970 session.

Jagger commissioned

 the back cover, 

featuring song titles

 and credits with

 photographs of the group

 two performances

 at the Saville Theatre,

London, UK, 

December 14, 1969, 

from British artist 

Steve Thomas, 

who said he produced

 the design in

 48 hours 

and that

 Jagger's response was 

"I really dig your artwork, man."

In November 2009,

 the album was reissued 

with unreleased songs 

by the Rolling Stones

 and also by

 opening acts

 B.B King 

and

 Ike & Tina Turner.
