We have been writing about the Scorpions here for years and years!

Always typing about the RCA years verses the Mercury years.

This band is Legendary. I've been to every tour since 1988.

I know I know, I missed the glory years. That's life baby!

 

Anyway, I can't get enough of "Lonesome Crow."

I think it's a psychedelic metal masterpiece! You??

 

40 minutes of pure sexy stingy Scorpions songs!!

It's just incredible! Thanks for posting brother! A three piece is all you need.

 

"LOVEDRIVE" BABY!

 

I saw Schenker Fest in San Jose last year. EPIC!

 

Michael hates his brother and the Scorpions.

 

He said....

 

 

"I wrote this hit for my little brother....... you are welcome!"

 

Then right into LOVEDRIVE!!!

 

I have my Schenker flying V and I'm a fukkin drummer!

 

 

GF!

 

You taking Eddie Van Halen or Michael Schenker?

 

Where would Alex Lifeson fit in????

I just listened to "Lonesome Crow" this past weekend.

 

I was a huge Scorpions fan back in the early 80's, buying everything they had come out with at the time. One of these purchases was "Lonesome Crow" and my musically immature 18 year old mind just couldn't figure out what to do with it. Fast forward to around 2004 and I decided to give it another listen. It completely blew me away and continues to do so to this day. The fact that Michael Schenker was 16 when it was recorded makes me want to give up playing the guitar entirely. I'm not worthy.

I like Lonesome Crow but I've got to be in the mood to listen to it. When I am, I really enjoy it.

 

It is a bit on the trippie side, isn't it? :D

Yeah, it has that little pinch of Krautrock.

 

The secret weapon are the bass parts of Lothar Heimberg. Just brilliant!

I've liked the Scorpions, and their music. I voted "Yes" because of that. I think, and find them to be a similar band, and group to Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden. They may have gone up, and down a little bit like a rollercoaster. If Klaus, can sound the same in the studio, and concert like Rob, and Bruce, can, and do, then it would be really good.

I got my copy in high school around then. Liked it from the start. Dark psychedelic metal masterpiece. One of a kind in their catalog, as the next few albums featured Uli Jon Roth. I still play it to this day. Headphone classic.
