I never really realized how much of a masterpiece this song is. Made the year I was born. I listened to the Scorps in the 80's-90's but never heard this till I was 45 . My God how did I miss this over the years. Wonderful finger work and song is just great

Scorpions formed in 1965. They've had such a looooong career compared to what most of us know from them. I've always known they were around forever, but I like most of us really only knew the 80s glam stuff until recently. Uli Jon Roth is a fucking genius

'70s Scorpions were the ultimate from 1972 Lonesome Crow to 1979 Love Drive, although I do love 1980 Animal Magnetism and 1982 Blackout, the best is "In Trance" and "Virgin Killer" two of the greatest albums ever made

This is exactly how I feel. Uli era to me is the ultimate. You should check out ELECTRIC SUN if you don't know it already. It's ULI's solo stuff from after he left the scorps. You won't regret it

Scorpions have had such a long and varied career as a band. Their often thought of as an 80s band because most of their well know hits were glam anthems and powdr ballads from the 80s, but they actually began in 1965. Their second guitarist Uli Jon Roth, featured on this track, is widely considered within the guitar community to be a master and pioneer of neoclassical alongside Randy Roads and Richie Blackmoore. The first 15 years or so of their career featured songs with a lot of psychedelic and progressive influences. Uli Jon Roth specifically had a lot of influence on later "shred" guitar players, and thanks to him and singer Klaus Meine's darker lyrical content during the 70s, this era of Scorpions are often cited as being proto-metal. They definitely helped lay the groundwork for what a lot of European metal would sound like in the future. By 79 they would find a lot of commercial success and with the departure of Roth, they adopted a more glam style of hard rock, which defined the band for decades to come. Uli remains an icon in heavy metal circles. To make a comparison, just as Rakin is often referred to as your favorite rapper's favortie rapper, Uli is known as your favorite guitarist's favorite guitarist

This is one of Scorpions' favorite songs. Actually, I was thinking of making a request. It's an amazing song selection. thanks so much. Think of this song, which maybe everyone here will be happy with. ”King Crimson - EPITAPH live In The Court of the Crimson King Steve Hackett & Greg Lake & Wetton” "Gary Moore - Always Gonna Love You [HD]"

I think you'll also like the title track for "In Trance" as it's just as emotional with how the instruments are arranged and written. A different emotion, of course, but there's something special about that song that I can't get tired of.

Another great choice of song Elok! 👍 Now that Uli Jon Roth has whetted your appetite for neo-classical shred guitar (if Ritchie Blackmore hadn't done so already), you owe it to yourself to check out some of Yngwie Malmsteen's work from the early to mid-1980s. The instrumental "Black Star" has him shredding up a storm and "Jet to Jet" (from when he was in Alcatrazz) has him playing with former Rainbow vocalist Graham Bonnet. Also, the video for "I'll See The Light Tonight" is a cheesy dungeons and dragons classic. Rock on! 🤘
@markr.devereux3385 Жыл бұрын
I revisited that stuff about a decade ago. But in my mind ECLIPSE is the best. The tracks are listenable and YNGWIE and his bag of tricks fully on display. Alas the hair metal world had a dark cloud ready to hit and it got socked with a knock out punch. But I will always have a cd of ECLIPSE at my fingertips. I am crazy about neo classical scales and harmonic minor shreds . It really pushes my music buttons.
