Really brief this time – I have to get to bed; I’m supposed to be on a 5:30am flight from BOS to PHL tomorrow morning. (Customer visit.)
I’m an “early Stones” kind of guy: I’m afraid that I lost interest after Sticky Fingers. The great thing about this live-in-the-studio album Stripped is that they get back to their roots without a trace of sentimentality. They absolutely rip into Street Fighting Man and never let up. Great blues, kick-ass rock. Even Angie sounds good – much better than the original version. Essential stuff – and the multimedia content is nicely done too.
