🎸 Scorpions Blackout - Shredding Solos, Face-melting Riffs!

Matias Jabs is the least rated lead guitar player the Scorpions had, I think. But as I was quit blown away by his playing on especially the Scorpions Blackout album. The first notes I heard of Blackout after Rudolph´s introduction was the roaring semi divebomb of Matias, followed by the rest of the song, which gave the feel of Van Halen meeting Dire straits, if that makes any sense...
The other day I was driving and put on some Scorpions for old times sake, and stumbled upon a demoversion of Blackout, without Matias Jabs. I thought that would be a great oportunity to cover this one, jamming along with Rudolph, Hermann, Francis and Klaus.
Anyway, I learned a lot doing this, hope you enjoy Scorpions Blackout guitar cover.

I realise I missed a day
But I'm too wrecked to care anyway
I look around and see this face
What the hell, have I lost my taste?
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out
My head explodes, my ears ring
I can't remember just where I've been
The last thing that I recall
I got lost in a deep black hole
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out
Blackout
I really had a blackout
I grab my things and make a run
On my way out, another one
Would like to know, before I stop
Did I make it or did I flop?
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out, yeah!
Blackout
I really had a blackout

Mattias’s whole part is seems like a lead all through the song. Nicely done with one of my favorite bands
