  • Tokyo Tapes Yellow Double Heavyweight Vinyl

    Tokyo Tapes Yellow Double Heavyweight Vinyl

    While the Scorpions were still slowly trudging their way up in Europe, they were already a recognised force in Japan, and 34Virgin Killer34 was the first album to be gilded in the land of the rising sun. So it was high time for the first trip to the Far East. Four months after the release of TAKEN BY FORCE, the group arrived in Tokyo in 1978. Four concerts were scheduled, one each in Osaka and Nagoya and two in Tokyo039s Nakano Sun Plaza. These two shows were recorded for the live double album TOKYO TAPES, which was also intended as a farewell gift for the departing Uli Jon Roth. TOKYO TAPES impressively documents what has always distinguished the Scorpions Their rousing and electrifying live presence, immense joy in playing, an intimacy with their audience that produces goosebumps, and of course musical and technical brilliance. In Tokyo, the classic lineup with the two outstanding guitarists Rudolf Schenker and Uli Jon Roth and the charismatic front man Klaus Meine was in the form of their lives. They played with the songs, changed them as they pleased, involved the audience and took the freedom to improvise. A good example is 34Fly To The Rainbow34. The band changes the song as they play, and Uli Jon Roth amuses himself to the best of his ability with his effects board. He lets the guitar roar, scream, wail and sing and then sets off on a solo that must be one of the best solos in rock history. TOKYO TAPES is a terrific live album that captures the band039s energy and joy of playing almost perfectly. It offers those who are not so familiar with the early years of the Scorpions an excellent opportunity to rediscover the great music they wrote before they became worldwide superstars. TOKYO TAPES is now released as a 180g gatefold 2LP, pressed on yellow vinyl.

  • Taken By Force White Heavyweight Vinyl

    Taken By Force White Heavyweight Vinyl

    TAKEN BY FORCE was released on 4 December 1977 and was the last studio album with Uli Jon Roth and the first with the new drummer Herman Rarebell. The newcomer also introduced himself as a songwriter and contributed the lyrics to Hes A Woman Shes A Man. TAKEN BY FORCE features a number of songs that have since become classics. Steamrock Fever is one of them, a typical live hit that was an absolute hit with the audience for many years. Then we have Ive Got To Be Free, written by Uli Jon Roth a highenergy and hardrocking piece with great riffs and some guitar magic that once again demonstrates Roths exceptional class. Ultraheavy riffs and a catchy chorus, on the other hand, are the trademarks of the aforementioned Hes A Woman Shes A Man. The small masterpiece The Sails Of Charon, another song by Uli Jon Roth, is a caliber on its own. The most unusual, and often criminally underrated, track on the album, however, is Your Light. A funky bass introduces the track and the song grooves almost like a Motown production. Your Light is the perfect counterpart and balance to the rather dark and oppressive The Sails Of Charon or The Riot Of Your Time. The ballad Born To Touch Your Feelings represents the romantic side of the Scorpions, which has established them as the Masters of Ballads over the years. The song is of the same class as the later monster hits Still Loving You or Holiday. Although the musical differences between Uli Jon Roth and the other band members had already become apparent during the recording process, TAKEN BY FORCE has become a fascinating album that does not have the slightest weak spot. It is the exquisite culmination of the era with Uli Jon Roth and at the same time a work that should have a significant influence on the future development of heavy metal. TAKEN BY FORCE is now released as a 180g 1LP, pressed on white vinyl.

The result was a studio album with three exceptional guitarists and the music was correspondingly breathtaking. LOVEDRIVE is the first classic Scorpions work of the postUli Jon Roth era, and it already showed all the characteristics that were to distinguish their music for decades to come an almost perfect mix of beautiful ballads, fantastic songwriting, hard and aggressive power riffs and powerful grooves.
