+1 on "Get Your Ya Yas Out" - don't know why I forgot about that one.
When I was 14, I was in a band that played high school dances and socials, and "Live With Me" and "Midnight Rambler" (the GYYYO versions) were part of our set list.

That's a coincidence - I just downloaded "Tattoo You" today.
Great record.
It's amazing how almost all of the songs on that record are outtakes from previous recording sessions.
