What can I say...the most amazing concert of the Scorpions! This tournament is my favourite. The stage, the light and sound effects, the performance and the setlist is just simple PERFECT!
The Scorpions went back to North-America after the summer Monsters Of Rock Tour where they played together by Van Halen, Metallica, Kingdom Come and Dokken. This MOR sequence had been very success. Besides the Scorps wanted to tour an own tournament alone because they want to show the last album Savage Amusement what released at the spring of 1988, four long years after their last studio album Love At First Sting. I have only this material in video what made in the full tournament of North-America. That's not rare but because it has circulated in the collectors and traders' world from so many years ago.
About the show. As I wrote before the greatest performance what the Scorpions could do on stage. They were beginning with a new song "We Let It Rock...You Let It Roll" what is a perfect start in my own opinion. The thunder effects are so cool under the song. That's great that the band played five new songs about their actual album. "Every Minute Every Day", "Media Overkill", "Rhythm Of Love", "Don't Stop At The Top" and the above-mentioned opening track. Good choises! The other diemaond is the full version of Holiday. I like the fast end part of the song. The next treasure is Hermn's drum solo. He began in his drums but later he continuedin an electric drum set in the right side of the stage. His best solo ever! One of my most favoutire part is when a big Flying V giutar grows up above the stage and Klaus crawles into the top. He just sings the song in it until the neck of the guitar is moving about the stage and the crowd. Amazing! And of course last but not least the pyramid what had been essential part of the Scorps concerts in this period. In fact the band played with full of energy and dashed the full concert all along. |
