Scorpions rock into the UK

With an impressive and hugely influential career that spans over 40 years, the Scorpions are on the top of the list of must-see hard rock bands. From the release of their debut album, 'Lonesome Crow', in 1972 to their big break 'Winds of Change' (that's me whistling it all day now), which became the top single of 1991, the Scorpions style can be recognised with that combination of two electric guitars, a fusion of power riffs with guitar solos. Added to which was the instantly recognisable voice of singer and front man Klaus Meine.

Since Rudolf Schenker, the band's rhythm guitarist, launched the band in 1965, they have sold over 75 million albums worldwide, no really!
