This 1966 release captures the Stones in their raw, untamed live element, a deliberate counterpoint to the more polished studio recordings emerging at the time.
- The album was recorded at various venues across the UK in 1966, including the Brighton Ice Rink and the Hammersmith Apollo.
- Initially intended as a genuine live album, Decca Records controversially overdubbed crowd noise and some instrumental parts in the studio to enhance the performances.
- "Got Live If You Want It!" reached number 3 on the UK Albums Chart and number 17 on the US Billboard 200.
The Rolling Stones are a British rock band formed in London in 1962, known for their blues-influenced sound and rebellious image. At the time of "Got Live If You Want It!", they were solidifying their status as one of the era's premier live acts, riding high on the success of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction."
