Just over a decade after the release of Stripped, The Rolling Stones are bringing us Totally Stripped – an expanded reissue of the popular acoustic live album with new additions galore. Totally Stripped arrives June 3rd on DVD or SD Blu-ray along with a revised version of the documentary of the same name, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at the two studio sessions and three live shows featured in this project. It also comes as a DVD+CD or DVD+LP featuring the documentary and single CD/two LPs compiled from live shows. Fans can get as well a deluxe edition of the reissue, complete with a 60-page book, a disc of hand-picked live cuts and DVDs of the complete live shows, now available for the first time ever.
Inspired partly by the sounds of MTV’s Unplugged, the Stones released the original Stripped in 1995, featuring simpler takes on many of their classic tunes as well as a few covers. The tracks came from two studio sessions in Tokyo and Lisbon and three intimate live shows in London, Paris and Amsterdam, with a goal of shifting the focus from production techniques to the lyrics and melodies of each song, shedding light on their simplicity and timeless qualities. The resulting performances were some of the band’s finest – raw, immediate and showcasing a whole new way of connecting with listeners.
