THE ROLLING STONES / GET YER YA YA’S ACETATE OUT! captain acid remaster (1CD)

Original Info
A crucial piece—a veritable "Rosetta Stone"—has emerged, offering further insight into the mysteries embedded within the grooves of *Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out!*. This piece is the infamous "Apple acetate"—an early test pressing of the album. The differences revealed by this acetate provide a new window into the creative process that shaped this enduring, beloved classic.
On this acetate, both guitar parts are brought to the forefront of the mix. In the final, commercially released version of *Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out!*, the guitars are buried within a dense, distorted wall of sound, which diminishes the raw, vivid quality of Keith Richards’ rhythm guitar work. In contrast, the guitars on this acetate are clearly audible—to the point where one can even discern the precise, striking timing with which Keith strums the strings.
Initially, I was quite skeptical of the claim that the bonus tracks were sourced from the original master reels—not least because the term "Reels" was misspelled as "Reers" in the CD’s liner notes. However, upon conducting an A-B comparison between this source and existing versions, the difference became immediately apparent. This is, without a doubt, the best-sounding source currently in existence.
