Scorpions-Love At First Sting (1982)

The perfect continuation of the great Blackout surpassed this one in sales, and it was not an easy task. Perhaps Love At First Sting is more balanced in terms of quality and power of assimilation, and it shows clearly when you hear it in its entirety. The power is controlled, the riffs are dynamic, agile and easy to remember, while the melodic facet increases with the vocal turns of a Klaus Meine in a state of grace. Thus we have compositions such as the explosive "Big City Nights", the initial "Bad Boys Running Wild" or the well-known "Rock You Like a Hurricane". The band offers its most sensitive side in the great "Still Loving You", probably the best ballad they have ever composed.
