Rolling Stones unreleased: Get Yourself Together (version #1)

Also known as: ‘I Can See It’, ‘I’ll Feel a Whole Lot Better’ or ‘Can’t Believe It’
Written by: Jagger/Richard
Recorded: RCA Studios, USA, Aug. 3-7 1966; Olympic Sound Studios, London, England, Nov. 9-Dec. 6 1966 (Aftermath sessions)

From Martin Elliott’s book THE ROLLING STONES COMPLETE RECORDING SESSIONS 1962-2012:
Get Yourself Together is a lively rock and roll jaunt that missed its vocation and has since become a sought-after recording. It portrays some harder guitar licks and an organ wavering in the background.

*By Marcelo Sonaglioni
Get Yourself Together is a high-energy rock and roll track that really didn’t get the attention it deserved when it was first released, but over time, it’s become a real gem for collectors. The song features gritty guitar riffs that pack a punch and an organ floating in the background, creating a raw, punchy sound. It’s got that classic rock vibe but with a bit of an edge, making it stand out among other songs of its time. The track didn’t quite take off in its original release, but it found new life in later years.

28 years later, in 1994, retro rock band The Chesterfield Kings put their own spin on the song, covering it on their Let’s Go Get Stoned album, a true tribute album to the band indeed. They gave it one of it alternate titles, Can’t Believe It, bringing a fresh, gritty edge to the original. Their version captured the same raw energy of the original while infusing it with their signature garage rock style. The cover introduced the track to a whole new audience, breathing new life into the song and making it a standout on the album. The Chesterfield Kings’ take became a beloved version for many rock enthusiasts. Their version brought fresh attention to the track, and it’s now considered a hidden treasure in rock history. It’s the kind of tune that, once you hear it, you can’t quite forget, with its catchy rhythm and infectious energy.
