Stripped is a Rolling Stones album released in November 1995 after the Voodoo Lounge Tour. It is a mixture of live performances and studio rerecordings of songs from their previous catalogue, the exceptions being new covers of Willie Dixon's "Little Baby" and Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone".

The two studio sessions took place from 3–5 March 1995 in Tokyo, Japan and 23–26 July in Lisbon, Portugal, while the live recordings are from July 1995 performances at small concert venues in London, Paris and Amsterdam.

Some CD versions of Stripped included an enhanced portion for viewing on a computer, including videos of rehearsals of "Tumbling Dice" and "Shattered" and an alternate performance of "Like a Rolling Stone," and interviews with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood.

Stripped (a play on the title of Unplugged) was well-received and reached No. 9 in the UK and the US, where it went platinum. The lead single, a cover of Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone," reached No. 12 in the UK, becoming a rock radio hit in the US. It was followed by "Wild Horses" in early 1996.

Stripped was the Rolling Stones' second album with Virgin Records.

The album was digitally remastered and re-issued in 2009.
