The Scorpions had made the new album 6-7 month in a studio at Los Angeles. They hadn't toured under this time just played in 2-3 stations in Russia and Ukraine. The official date were different in countries. The first releasing was in France in 14th of May and the other countries got the new album just 2-3 weeks later in Europe. Well, the band had begun thier new tournament in Puertollano what was 3 days before the album releasing in France. There was the very first step on the tour and first station where they played 5 new songs about the Humanity - Hour 1. Unfortunatelly this DVD is incomplete but all of the new tracks are on it. The Inrto is very great. There is the "retro version" of the titel track what is at the end of the album as an encore part. The new song had been packed very good. Only one ballad ("Humanity") what is not a typical slow song. There are great hard riffs on it. The other 4 songs are real hard and heavy songs. "Hour 1" is a great choice for the beginning of a concert. "The Game Of Life" and "We Were Born To Fly" are also so good what made in typical Scorps stlye what had been mixed with a new fresh sound. "321" is a real concert song with its pulsating rhythm. The Scorps added some so songs to the tracklist what they hadn't played from long time ago. I think of the "I'm Leaving You" what was big hit in the middle of 80's when their most populer album Love At First Sting released. They played this song just in the second half of Pure Instinct tour in 1997 and after that the band put down from the tracklists. I have the full show in audio cd and the Scorps played a 125 minutes show. As I wrote this DVD is just the first 70 minutes but there is one of my best recording about the Tournament 2007! The performance is perfect. The members played with full of energy and they are very fitt around the 60 years also. :)
