Rolling Stones, Get Yer Ya-Yas Out!, 40th Anniversary Box Set

[Elite-ist]

Hi all,

Will anyone purchase either of the Deluxe Box Sets, becoming available at the end of this month, or earlier? I just bought this concert LP a couple of weeks ago. To me, it sounded a little flat. The record store, Audiophile, had the same LP in a Japanese pressing, but at $60, it was too steep of a price.

I've been thinking about it. I have the SACD hybrid version. Sounds good to me. I'll have to see what extras come with it. I definately plan on buying the Tom Petty boxset when it comes out at the end of the month.

Hi clhboa,

If I could have found it in SACD, I would have bought it. Don't know why the vinyl rendition was blah.

I'll have to look up the Tom Petty box set. Before I left for work tonight, I played the LP live version of "Breakdown" for the girl-friend. That should keep her on her toes! You've seen Petty in concert, haven't you? He played in an outdoor concert out in a huge farmer's field in Pemberton (50 miles north of me), two summers ago.

There is a thread on Stereonet Australia titled

Q: What is the greatest advancement in audio reproduction in the last decade

I think this is appropriate for this thread because the correct answer is

A: The amount of vinyl titles becoming available again

Amazon has the SACD listed for sale. It's out of print but shouldn't be too difficult to track down. I was center 12th row for Petty at Red Rocks in 2005. Fantastic show!

Thanks for the tip! I'll look it up. So, that was at the amphitheatre in Denver, with the Black Crowes?

Yes it was.

MJ: "You wouldn't me trousers to fall off now would ya?"

hearing the girls scream "yesss" is worth the price.
This album, "Live at Leeds" and "Delaney and Bonnie on Tour" are 3 of the top live albums ever. "Ya Yas" has to be played loud, for some reason. Play it loud and that flatness will vanish.

[westgate]

i still got an original japanese pressing of GYYYO i bought in tokyo back in '73. the cover is pretty worn but the vinyl is almost mint.

and i'm keeping it.

nah nah nah nah naah ...nah!*reelspin**reelspin**grin*

yes to 'GYYYO and '...LEEDS', not sure about 'D&B'; maybe.
'wings over america', 'FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE', CSNYs '4 WAY STREET', also great ones.

Hi westgate,

Any idea what would be a fair price to pay for a Japanese pressing of this record? Give me a number, and I'll print it and show the Audiophile store owner what I'm willing to pay. Surely, he's heard of you and will repect your estimation. If I could petition other fellow THers for support, I'll drop by tomorrow to cut a fair price- certainly, not $60!

Thanks,

Nando.

OK Nakdoc,

It's like getting goaded by an older brother to not bother being a pansy about it, and just crank it!

Thanks bro'

unfortunately i don't have the faintest idea. i bought my copy 36 years ago and have never looked at any going prices for it since.

and i also have no idea what the 'audiophile' store is- never mind the owner having heard of me.

best i can do here is wish you good luck.*headtunes*

I have a 2002 copy of Goldmine "Records and Prices", but no valuation of a Japanese pressing of this LP. Were these pressings virgin-vinyl, mastered differently? What made them so sought after? Lucky you, having such a copy. Any other Japanese pressings in your vinyl collection?

GYYYO is definitely one of my favorite live albums. Sure it's a good performance by the Stones, but I think the secret is in the way it was recorded -- I feel like I'm on-stage with the band every time I play it. And Nakdoc is right: don't even think about playing this at low volume because it loses that lively on-stage magic.

Hi faustus,

So, do you think the re-release of the CD box set would interest you? I'm thinking of picking it up, and see how well it compares to its' analog brother. It (CD) has some extra tracks of the concert, not on the original LP.

Nando.

[Eldorado]

People, all well and good, and at their peak, the Stones are without peer, but save some $ for the Miles box too. It's a whopper. Your wife would want you to have it. http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Columbia-Collection-Amazon-com-Exclusive/dp/B002EOF7U8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1257865705&sr=8-3

as i mentioned before, i bought my copy in tokyo in 1973.
i would venture to say that it is (was) virgin vinyl. any other knowledge about it, again, i have no idea.
it still has the japanese inserts on/in the jacket.
i bought it in an ordinary japanese record shop along with probably thousands of other people buying the same thing. it was just another stones record.

i also have japanese pressings of deep purples 'made in japan'; ten years after, 'live in japan' (both double LPs) and a few others i don't remember right now. all bought in tokyo back in the day.

i didn't buy any of those cuz they might be collectors items, virgin vinyl, special mastering, or thus and such. i bought them as regular LPs to listen to on my new quad hi fi system.
if i bought them new (or even used) nowadayz, i'm sure i would be more aware of their potential value.

Hey Nando,

After reading the descriptions of the new box sets, I'm sure either set would be cool because it gives us more of the Stones show plus the Ike/Tina and BB opening acts. Hopefully, it was all recorded with the same equipment used to record the Stones. I'm not too excited about the book, poster, or DVD.

Choosing between the two box sets, I'd probably opt for the Super Deluxe version; the addition of the vinyl seems well worth it to me. Will I buy it? Not at this time; my cash is way too tight right now. *fit* If I wasn't flat broke, then I'd probably pull the trigger.

If you do get one of the new box sets, please be sure to let us know what you think.

[clhboa]

After seeing the price on Amazon I'll probably have to pass at this time too. Unless I see a good sale somewhere.

Hi faustus,

You're right, the Super Deluxe box set would be the one to get. Unfortunately, some of the preliminary reviews from buyers on Amazon.com panned the deluxe version. Of course, none of the respondents mentioned the sound quality, only the fact 18 minutes of extra tracks could have been squeezed onto one CD, and the DVD wasn't great. Not cost-effective, and a bit of a gouge! Oh, well.

Hi clhboa,

Prices vary from about $79-$120 for the Super Deluxe box set. I'll see what they're charging here, before ordering through Amazon.com.

*bigthumbup*
I am posting this under the Ya-Ya's listing so that it might gather more attention than otherwise.....

..............The Rolling Stones have officially released the Oct 17, 1973 Forest National, Brussels Belgium recordings
(RELEASED IN NOV 2011 at a very special low price cost)

Those of you Stones fans old enough (around 50 or older) that remember the 1974 King Biscuit broadcasts in Sept & Nov of '74 of the 10-17-73 1st show recordings with Happy, Street Fighting Man, Gimme Shelter & Happy from Sept 9, 1973 at Empire pool, wembley LONDON and everything else from 10/17/73 1st show of Brussels, Belgium.

You recall the tremendous versions of You Can't Always Get What You Want and Midnight Rambler where Keith is charging like a runaway locamotive.
........Well after being probably the most listened to tape on Wolfgangs since that site has been up.....
The Stones decided to issue Brussels Affair .
Other Brussels tracks that weren't bcast in '74 were mixed and bcast on KBFH in 1987/1988 on a Stones retrospective.
It once required that you get several boot issues to get all the Brussels tracks in the best avail quality of then avail., but now you get it from a close to the source as possible and in what one presumes is the highest quality and legitimately too!

Now if The Glimmer Twins will dust off the multitrack tapes of July 20, 1972 and July 21, 1972 1st & 2nd at SPECTRUM in Philly which were being planned for a double live LP in '72 when Allen K & ABKCO claimed that they owned much of the songs until '76.
The tapes of Spectrum shows are smokin' and are unbelieveably far better than the two June 24th Ft Worth shows or June 25th Houston which make up Ladies & Gentlemen.
Philly shows were as great. The quality is superb if tape source isn't multi-generational. There are others that perhaps were recorded that may yield decent '72 recordings such as Pittsburgh & MSG NY but those appear to be basic tape decks just patched into the soundboard. Europe '70 and UK 3/71 have broadcast recordings too. Nearly all of Feb '73 Australia shows were captured crudely with tapedecks into probably the stage/monitor mixes of board. The Philly '72 sound quality should be amazing in legitimate form. LOVE IN VAIN & GIMME SHELTER are FANTASTIC! They are as good as Charlotte 7-6-72 which was just a fan with a cassette recorder capturing a magic night, though the fan misses the 1st two songs in charlotte.

This Stones fan thinks that the Glimmer Twins should also issue the entire Clemson 11-26-89 Death Valley Stadium Concert which appears on Flashpoint with Gator Bowl 11-25//Tokyo 2/90 & London '90.
If they were to issue the entire 11/26/89 show in decent audio, it would be amazing! At the very least, they should re-issue a re-done FLASHPOINT with better audio as the original '91 issued CD has no bass and is thin sounding, but otherwise superb performances. Clemson's satisfaction is great. It is just that the sound of that album was poorly done from an eq/mastering, as many CD's of that time.

Nick: thanks for the update and links. With the Rolling Stones' 50th Anniversary coming next year, what are the chances they would consider touring? I did buy the Exile On Main Street (Super Deluxe Limited Version - 2 CD/2LP/DVD) [Limited Edition] last year.

Nando.

[Parnelly]

I have some mp3 bootlegs of the brussels affair, as well as some other stones boots from past to present. If anyone is interested in these send me a pm i would be glad to share. I know they are in mp3 format and that might discourage some but brussels affair is of good qualityl. Voodoo at halloween and Babylon rehearsals are some others i have to name a couple.

[Warped Bezel]

I went to the Stones' site as suggested in the OP's link.

Info on GYYYO?

Nada Ya-Ya's.

Maybe it's UMG's fault.

*reelspin**reelspin*
The Rolling Stones have officially released the 3rd release in their "bootleg series". It is the LA Forum concert from Sunday July 13th 1975.
The 1st release (nov 2011) was Brussels Belguim Oct 17, 1973

The 2nd release was Hampton Virginia Dec 18, 1981

The 3rd release: LA Forum, July 13, 1975


They are only available officially as Digital Downloads.

The LA Forum bootleg was a superb stereo audience recording made with a portable cassette deck by that guy that taped so many shows in the LA area in the seventies. I'm guessing that perhaps the source material for this is hopefully an official recording and not the audience tape source that has Jagger asking "Who Went To Church Today"... "none of you went to church today" "Billy...you went.....(One of the guys near the taperecorder's mic's is clearly heard saying I'm In Church Now !) If I recall, that is before Tumbling Dice.
I haven't yet heard the official release of 7-13-75 that is now available as a download on the Stones' site.
