Biography

“While we were working on our album these past few months, we could literally feel how powerful and creative our work was–and how much fun we were still having, in the process,” says SCORPIONS lead singer KLAUS MEINE about the band’s new album STING IN THE TAIL. “We want to end the SCORPIONS’ extraordinary career on a high note. We are extremely gracious for the fact that we still have the same… Read more in Amazon's Scorpions Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Like this CD? You'll love the DVD!, October 1, 2001
By 
This review is from: Acoustica (Audio CD)
If you like this CD (or maybe especially if you didn't like it) see the excellent DVD!

18 great arrangements of Scorpions' classics + three cover versions of Kansas(Dust in the Wind), Queen(Love of my life) and the Cars(Drive).

Great video quality, shot with 12 cameras, excellent sound (DTS)!

Maybe a good reason to buy a DVD player .....

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Like this Cd, July 28, 2001
By 
Lawrence Ryan (Kansas City, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Acoustica (Audio CD)
If you want Heavy Scorpions, this is not the Cd for you!
If your a fan of the Scorps Ballads then go ahead and Buy this one. If you think that Acoustical sets should all be heavy and loud, this your mistaken, Scorps finally have a way of showing us the raw talent of Rudolph and Mathias, and of course Klauss vocals are flawless.
Some new songs and some new versions of old songs of course,
and some delightful suprise covers of a few of the greats like "Dust in the Wind" and "Drive" Both songs respectably done with taste and original depth.
Over all......Scorpions have put together something very original with their talents, and I am very pleased!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth paying the price for an import, July 10, 2002
By 
This review is from: Acoustica (Audio CD)
Call this the Scorpions version of an MTV Unplugged album. You CANT go wrong with this one. Meine's vocals really stand out. Versions of several well-known numbers here are just great. The arrangement of "rock you like a hurricane" is interesting. The cover of Queen's "love of my life" is good, and this is coming from a die-hard Queen fan. It makes you wish Freddie was still here to have done this himself. Also covered is Kansas' "dust in the wind" - and likewise, having seen Kansas live, I can say this version does justice to it, I prefer this up-tempo one. Aside from some hits, the lesser known (to most americans) songs here are executed nicely. This CD scores as many points as their orchestral rock album "moment of glory". Buy it.
