Об альбоме (сборнике)
"A solid overview of their early material before they broke the mainstream."
Best of Scorpions is a compilation album that contains the best tracks of the band's 1970s material. A sound collection of songs from their albums between Fly To The Rainbow and Taken by Force.
What you hear on Best of Scorpions is a band polishing their sound. The songs are rawer and heavier overall with a large emphasis on Uli John Roth's Hendrix-like lead work. Roth's "Hell Cat" sounds like one of the heavier tunes off of Electric Ladyland. Klaus Meine's lead vocals were very powerful and Rudolf Schenker's gift of writing memorable melodic riffs show their fruition here. Roth left the Scorpions in 1979 which is where this compilation ends.
Every track is very solid... "Pictured Life," "Backstage Queen" and "Steamrock Fever" are excellent arena anthems. "Virgin Killer" and "Dark Lady" are furious rockers featuring menacing riffs and Roth's wild lead work. "Robot Man" and "Speedy's Coming" have great riffs. There’s the humorous "He's A Woman, She's A Man" and "In Trance" is an excellent power ballad and one of the band's defining tracks. Finally, the brilliant "The Sails of Charon" which is widely considered one of the great early epics of heavy metal history.
---------------------------------------------------
Best of Scorpions is a compilation album by the German heavy metal band Scorpions. It was released in November 17, 1979 in the United States. The record contains songs from their albums between Fly to the Rainbow and Taken by Force. No songs were culled from their debut album, Lonesome Crow.
The original German edition of the cover art featured an image of a scorpion stinging a naked girl’s hip. The Japanese edition features an alternative cover showing a naked female’s buttocks. The 1984 U.S. re-release cover featured an image of a man wearing a leather jacket and a scorpion necklace. The album was reissued for the first time on CD in 1984.
All Music Review
When the Scorpions finally broke through to the mainstream in 1982, RCA released numerous compilations of the band’s earlier work from the ’70s. By no means should one think The Best of the Scorpions is for diehards only — the music here is quite enjoyable. RCA would go on to release several more Scorpions compilations (Best Of, Vol. 2, Hot & Heavy, Best of Rockers ‘n’ Ballads, etc.), but the original Best Of is still the wisest purchase.
