This week's retail therapy. 🎸🎶👅'Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out' is a live album that finds the Rolling Stones at a crossroads, and not just because there's a Robert Johnson cover on the set list. These recordings were made on their 1969 tour, the first with blues prodigy Mick Taylor on lead guitar and the last with their "evil/Satanic" image, which came to a violent end on the last night of the tour. The album sounds beautiful- pretty amazing, considering the technological limitations of recording a live concert in the 1960s. And it's fascinating to hear songs that originally featured Brian or Keith on lead guitar reimagined with the jaded sexuality that characterized the Taylor-era Rolling Stones sound. The biggest revelation, though, is the homoerotic third verse of "Honky Tonk Women" that was cut from the studio version! How I've managed to be a Stones fan for years and never known about that verse's existence is beyond me. 🇫🇷⚓️👬👅
