Comment:
The Scorpions were at the top of their game in 1990-1991. Some say that this was the beginning of the decline. One, because of their "Winds Of Change" song, and two, because of the rise of the Alternative and Grunge era of the 90s.
Sadly, the Scorpions would not tour again until 1994, and it would be without founding member Francis Bucholz and it would be in much smaller venues and smaller album sales.
This concert shows the "classic" lineup of the Scorpions , giving it one last hurrah before changing direction musically and with their personnel. It was recorded by me on a pleasant, early April evening, which, in Minnesota is pretty good, at the good old Met Center (which is no more- replaced by the Mall of America- bleh.) where the old North Stars hockey team used to play. It's about as good as it can sound, being that a sports arena doesn't have great acoustics, and that my seats weren't that good either. On the plus side, it is the complete concert and it's a bit of rock history.
