Scorpions Ranked 🦂

Scorpions one of my favorite bands, in the last couple of years I started listen much often the 70’s records and those records grows up on me.
The band of the seventies is hard heavy and obscure, with Uli Roth amazing guitar work, thats why I change completely the original my maybe order of this list.

Pioneers on the hard rock and early heavy metal scene in Germany.
Scorpions started in late 60’s, in 1972 they recorded their debut album, the band's only album with lead guitarist Michael Schenker – just 16 at the time of the recording – as a full-time member. He soon left to join UFO and was replaced by Ulrich Roth until 1978. After that the band lead by Klaus Meine And Rudolph Schenker wrote the most famous songs and music and got the recognition and worldwide success.

1.Scorpions - Taken By Force
2.Scorpions - In Trance
3.Scorpions - Virgin Killer
4.Scorpions - Fly To The Rainbow
5.Scorpions - Lonesome Crow

THE METAL BIBLE Part I: The 70s

Welcome to what I consider the "1970s Metal Bible" or in other words, a list of records of various genres in the arrays of Metal and Hard Rock that I deem essential or at least very recommended to listeners of hard and heavy music. This and the other parts of this journey through the decades may be a very overwhelming list. I essentially try to collect all albums in the History of Metal that strike me as worthwhile. May this be a guideline for people that seek for an entrance to a particular genre or certain bands. In no means I am saying, that this list is indisputable by any means. I consider these my personal picks for albums that should be listened to by die-hard metal fans at least once. Hopefully you can discover some new music or relate with my picks. If I missed something that you would include in such a list, please tell me in the form of a comment. Enjoy! \,,/

1.High Tide - Sea Shanties
2.Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
3.Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin

Top 10 Songs By Scorpions Most People Never Heard

Looking at the top ten list of metal from 1974, I couldn't believe you only listed 6 albums, and none of them were Fly To The rainbow, where Uli Jon Roth truly ripped. This inspired me to list, although a lot of their music I more often than not think is a pop sellout or just not really that metal and I really do enjoy the Humanity album more than I've liked most of their stuff since like World Wide Live, the deserving top 6 for giving credit where credit is due.

1.Scorpions - Fly To The Rainbow
2.Scorpions - Virgin Killer
3.Scorpions - Taken By Force
4.Scorpions - Animal Magnetism
5.Scorpions - Love At First Sting
