Rolling Stones' 'Get Yer Ya Ya's Out!

The Rolling Stones are to release a 40th anniversary edition of their legendary live set 'Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!'.

The record will be reissued in both deluxe (three-disc/one DVD) and super-deluxe format (three-disc/one DVD/56-page booklet/three vinyl replicas), each chronicling the band's two-night stand at Madison Square Garden in November 1969. The two packages are set to include extra tracks and footage of the album's classic cover shoot featuring Charlie Watts jumping around next to a donkey. They really don't make them like they used to.

The deluxe set will appear on November 3 with the super deluxe collection hitting shelves on November 17.

The Beatles' 1968 animated movie Yellow Submarine is to be remade using 3-D technology.

Disney, the studio behind the project, will work with Apple Corps to produce a new motion-capture version of the classic story. Academy Award-winning director Robert Zemeckis will direct the film.

A tentative release date of summer 2012 has been set.

At the age of 92, Dame Vera Lynn has become the oldest living artist to hit the top of the UK album chart.

We'll Meet Again - The Very Best of Vera Lynn beat the likes of Arctic Monkeys' Humbug, Jamie T's Kings and Queens and the entire remastered Beatles catalogue to the Number 1 spot. "You never know what's round the corner do you?" Lynn told the BBC.

Elsewhere in the upper echelons of the charts, The Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Abbey Road, Revolver and Rubber Soul all made it into the Top Ten, charting at Numbers 5, 6, 9 and 10 respectively.
