A Stripped Companion
My friends, this is my FIVE HUNDREDTH POST.
As such, I thought it might be appropriate to dig around the back corners of my hard drive and see if I could find something kind of special to mark the occasion. What I came up with is a Rolling Stones boot, known as the Stripped Companion. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that Stripped was the Stones’ 1995 acoustic live album. This unofficial “companion” album is a compilation of outtakes, “B” sides, and a couple of other miscellaneous unplugged tracks, all from the 1993-1995 era. A listener review written on Bootleg Zone called the Companion disk “Amazing,” and said, “This is what boots should always do: Surpass the original.”
