180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>The Scorpions have always been an amazing live band, probably one of the best in the world. Their performances are highly intense, electrifying and full of magical moments. They do rock you like a hurricane and many of their greatest songs only reveal their full potential when the band performs them in front of an audience. The idea behind WORLD WIDE LIVE, the Scorpions' second live recording after TOKYO TAPES (1978), was to catch the band at their peak.<br/><br/>For the live album, they recorded five shows in San Diego, Los Angeles, Costa Mesa, Paris and Cologne. The recordings capture the incredible atmosphere at Scorpions concerts and demonstrate the apparent ease with which the band manages to completely captivate their audiences. The setlists featured the very best pieces from their past four albums, and the way they performed the songs on stage adds an extra dimension of power, roughness and emotion to them. WORLD WIDE LIVE was first released on 20 June 1985. The album charted all over Europe, North- and South America and Asia and should consequently become one of the biggest selling live albums ever.<br/><br/>The Double LP comes in an original replica version with the CD in paper sleeve incl. all bonus tracks and the original poster.

180 gram vinyl.<br/><br/>Expectations of them were sky high when the Scorpions entered the studio to record the follow up to the hugely successful albums LOVE AT FIRST STING and WORLD WIDE LIVE, yet the band were not in a rush. Instead, it took the Scorpions almost three years before they finally released SAVAGE AMUSEMENT. The album surprised fans and critics alike, not least because of the musical changes it introduced. Some were subtle, others less so. SAVAGE AMUSEMENT documents the band's ability to react to changes in the musical landscape as well as their willingness to experiment. SAVAGE AMUSEMENT turned out to be yet another brilliant album from a great band. Since its release on 16 April 1988, it has proved to be yet another global success for the Scorpions and became the sixth consequent album to go platinum. Its release was followed by a ground breaking world tour. <br/><br/>The release contains the newly remastered original album tracks and also six unreleased bonus tracks. "Taste Of Love", "Edge Of Time", "Don't Wait Too Long", "Dancing In The Moonlight" and "Fast And Furious" are thrilling demo takes, while "Living For Tomorrow" is a song that was first recorded live in Leningrad on 26 April 1988.<br/><br/>The LP comes in an original replica version with the CD in paper sleeve incl. all bonus tracks.
