Background: In the late 1970s, collectors were showing a lot of interest in colored vinyl LPs, so record companies around the world began issuing limited edition colored vinyl pressings of both then-new titles and older ones. Many of the titles issued in Europe were heavily exported to the United States, and a few issues were issued only for export.
Among the titles issued in 1978 were a number of titles by the Rolling Stones, pressed by Decca Records in the Netherlands, including the 1970 live album Get Your Ya-Ya’s Out, which had been recorded on the band’s 1969 tour.
Get Your Ya-Ya’s Out is widely regarded as one of the best live albums of all time and one of the first “modern” live recordings.
AllMusic.com gave Get Your Ya-Ya’s Out 4 1/2 stars:
Recorded during their American tour in late 1969, and centered around live versions of material from the Beggars Banquet-Let It Bleed era. Often acclaimed as one of the top live rock albums of all time, its appeal has dimmed a little today. The live versions are reasonably different from the studio ones, but ultimately not as good, a notable exception being the long workout of “Midnight Rambler,” with extended harmonica solos and the unforgettable section where the pace slows to a bump-and-grind crawl. Fans who are unconcerned with picky comparisons such as these will still find Ya-Ya’s an outstanding album, and it’s certainly the Stones’ best official live recording.
