REVIEW: |
This is the
latest release of the Get Yer Ya Ya s Out acetate coming Captain Acid and it is
most likely the best one. The content is well known as it has been presented
many times in underground recordings being the demo live album mixed by Glyn
Johns. At the end of the set there are some extra songs. In the words of the
maker: ‘
An important
piece of the "Rosetta Stone" necessary to further decipher the
mysteries trapped within the grooves of Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! has surfaced. It
is none other than the infamous "Apple Acetate" otherwise known as
the early test pressing of the Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! album. Differences heard in
the acetate unearth further clues about the evolution of this timeless
recording. The acetate has both guitars "up" in the mix. The rawness
and brilliance of Richards rhythm playing is masked by a guitar mix that has
both guitar players buried in pile of distorted mud on the "Get Yer
Ya-Ya's Out!" album. You can clearly hear the guitars, Taylor fills during
Jumping Jack Flash and the incredible timing of Richards strumming of the
guitar strings on the acetate’. In the words of Chris Manicou from Revelations
on the Rolling Stones: ‘I was very skeptical about the bonus tracks from the
original reels claim especially since "Reels" is mis-spelled as
"Reers" on the cd inlay. I did an A-B sound comparison using an
original Decca LP as a reference. The sound on these cd tracks is incredibly
clear and distinct. The best quality sound source for Side One of Get Yer
Ya-Ya's Out! in existence.’
The cd used
for this job was Broadway (DAC-092)
as a source for this remaster and
added bonus tracks from original reels (taken from another disc). As previously
said this is the best possible version of the Get Yer Ya Ya’s Out acetate, with
no hint of the crackles that affected all other versions, let alone the
in-between songs Jagger dialogues and the long Midnight Rambler introduction,
the missing Sympathy For The Devil verse as well as tracks different order, however
there are some things for which the original Ya Ya is to be preferred, like the
prominence of Wyman’s bass especially at the beginning of songs like Midnight Rambler,
quite absent here. There are also some inaccuracies in the liner notes as we
all know that Love In Vain from Ya Ya comes from Baltimore and not from MSG and
Stray Cat Blues possibly too; as far as the bonus tracks, said to come from “another
cd†it is In Concert Get Your Ya Ya’s Out the Legendary Apple Acetate (No Label)
which is unnamed here. So, as a famous politician once said: something that was
done good can always be done better.
