My beloved Klaus, you used to have hair!!! :d I love these early recordings... ;) and all of their songs. Will be going to a concert soon. They're pure magic!!!!
@mzaputil I agree with you about those pop bands sucking, and Priest and Scorps were 2 of my very favorite rock bands, but there was lots of good rock: UFO, Rainbow, Nazareth, Uriah Heep, Sweet, AC/DC, Motorhead, Foghat, etc. The 70's produced some of the best music.
OMG , thank you thank you for uploading this , another one of my fave songs, by the scorpions and of course the one and only Uli on lead guitar , awesome !
Agreed but for me he easily surpassed Blackmore, as far as neo-classical chops are concerned. Roth was and still is light-years ahead! The likes of Malmsteen, Gilbert, Becker, Friedman, etc owe more to Roth's work. That's just my opinion though. I do like what Blackmore did with Deep Purple and Rainbow, though not his Blackmore's Night stuff...
The interesting thing is that this song was written by Uli about his bandmates. He was about to leave the band, and the lyrics speak very clearly for him. The Scorpions were "spoiling his art". "You say you wanna be a superstar / You're giving up to get that far" - Well, the eighties proved that the lyrics were true. They became a commercial metal band in order to keep the cash flowing.
Oh well you definitely need to get this whole album "Taken By Force" if you haven't already. Burn the Sky, Sails of Charon & Steamrock Fever are the ones from that album that are fairly well known to Scorps fans. The other songs not so much, but they are so so good! You posted this 9 years ago so I'm hoping this is old news to you. :)
I'm on board with that!! I think I get the same sound with my Floyd Rose system on my Jackson, but it would be so cool to have the white Strat. Interesting, a white Strat just like his hero Jimi.
This is getting confusing. Someone earlier started referring to Rudy Lenners as "Rudolph" too, so I was rolling with that. Yes I knew Rudolph Schenker was a founding member, he's the backbone of that band! thx dude!
Ehe, not to be bitchy, arrogant or upitty but as far as I know, Rudolf and Meine where the OnLY ones to have been in the band since it got formed. Jabs joined after Michael Schenker's second departure, if I remember/know correctly.
I know if you check out the vid "I'm going mad" from Lone-Crow here on youtube you'll see that its some other dude on drums...doesn't mean he was in the studio I suppose. rock on bro!
Man, I am withya, I was a teen in the late 70's and music was fucking HORRIBLE, AWFUL, so bad I can't even describe it. You forgot a few, BeeGees, Olivia Newton John, Fleetwood Mac, disco, etc,etc,etc.If it wasn't for these guys, and the Judas Priest albums of the time, there would be nothing worth a shit to listen to.
Even Klaus' gear is timeless. With the right hat, he could be a DJ in 2021 with those threads.
70's Scorps ruled!!!!
Dancing Klaus! Einfach fantastisch! Scorpions forever!
I love this song & Uli's solo!!!! Classic underrated, underappreciated rock.
They always made killer albums, if you dont have any of their early stuff I'm sorry.
Uli Jon Roth is the man! This is by far my favorite Scorpions album. It just plain rocks.
My beloved Klaus, you used to have hair!!! :d I love these early recordings... ;) and all of their songs. Will be going to a concert soon. They're pure magic!!!!
Of course he did.
One of the top 5 guitar albums ever. In my book
Thank you very much for this video! The world is enjoying this piece of their history!
У НИХ НЕТ ПЛОХИХ ПЕСЕН !!!! КАЖДАЯ ПЕСНЯ ШЕДЕВР!!!
Это точно, тоже где-то лет через 10 вернулся дослушивать и теперь регулярно прослушиваю, благо альбомов много)

Tokyo tapes is a killer album
Клаус был таким попрыгунчиком в молодости!
Ахахах..Забавно
Uli wrote this about his feelings regarding possibly leaving the Scorpions and a little over a year later, he did.
@mzaputil I agree with you about those pop bands sucking, and Priest and Scorps were 2 of my very favorite rock bands, but there was lots of good rock: UFO, Rainbow, Nazareth, Uriah Heep, Sweet, AC/DC, Motorhead, Foghat, etc. The 70's produced some of the best music.
ESTA CANCION TIENE TAN BUENA HONDA Y NOS HACE RECORDAR LA DECADA DE LOS
70S ME FASCINA !!!!!!! ☆☆☆☆☆
OMG , thank you thank you for uploading this , another one of my fave songs, by the scorpions and of course the one and only Uli on lead guitar , awesome !
I've always said that uli was the perfect fusion of hendrix's psychedelic blues rock and ritchie blackmore's neo-classical rock
hes my favorite guitarist of all time
Agreed but for me he easily surpassed Blackmore, as far as neo-classical chops are concerned. Roth was and still is light-years ahead!

Who ever is posting these videos......thanks, they are awesome and with the guitars of Schenker and Roth...keep posting them !!!
very strong song.Klaus is great
on top of their game fo' sho'!!
2:08 SUPER CRAZY SCIENCE FICTION ROBOT MAN KLAUS DANCE LOL LOVE IT !!
Man that band had some geetar players huh? Michael Schenker,Uli Roth and Matthias Jabs. Would've loved to have seen'em in the 70's
This is steaight up Deep Pueple meets Jimi Hendrix. It's so cool.
One of the coolest solo ever heard
Those who make any negative comments towards Uli Roth with the Scorps obviously haven't listened to "Tokyo Tapes" the live album.
The interesting thing is that this song was written by Uli about his bandmates. He was about to leave the band, and the lyrics speak very clearly for him. The Scorpions were "spoiling his art". "You say you wanna be a superstar / You're giving up to get that far" - Well, the eighties proved that the lyrics were true. They became a commercial metal band in order to keep the cash flowing.
in the 80's they found that ever sweet spot where they made great timeless records while dramatically increasing the cash flow
best ever!!
The BEST!
pure scorpions
Pioneers
Agreed!
Yeah, Klaus sings (Uli's lyrics about) how he wants to become a popstar even not knowing about it..
What???!!!!
FUCK YEH HIGHLY UNDERATED GUITAR GOD!
Uli changed the way people play! Amazing fluidity and flow! BTW I have NEVER heard this song, EVER!
Oh well you definitely need to get this whole album "Taken By Force" if you haven't already. Burn the Sky, Sails of Charon & Steamrock Fever are the ones from that album that are fairly well known to Scorps fans. The other songs not so much, but they are so so good!
You posted this 9 years ago so I'm hoping this is old news to you. :)
yeah dude this song and the the lyrics talk about the scorp's future in a way!Uli knows!
Rudolf must've forgot his flying V that day-- LOL
uli is god..!!
Have been praying for years. I don't think it exists though.
I'm on board with that!! I think I get the same sound with my Floyd Rose system on my Jackson, but it would be so cool to have the white Strat. Interesting, a white Strat just like his hero Jimi.
Really mean hard rock sound, yet Uli produces those delicate, clean, single coil strat tones in between, there's alyways time for some style :D
Guess who dances better than me. Klaus!
This ,versions audio edit .Songs very good.
Indeed. He and Meine, right?
post more please
If your talking about Rudolph Schenker...yes we all agree on that already ten times over. The Question was Rudy Leners..??
thx....
that fender stratocaster was he's first guitar.
This is getting confusing. Someone earlier started referring to Rudy Lenners as "Rudolph" too, so I was rolling with that. Yes I knew Rudolph Schenker was a founding member, he's the backbone of that band!
thx dude!
No shit!!?? I hear ya on that
2:45 dance as axel jajj
Scorpions and UFO in the 70's hard shitty management and PR people.
I thinks so. Not sure though...
Ахуенная песня!!!👏👍
You probably know more than anyone...what happend to Rudy?? Did he quit or get kicked out?? and Fuck yeah amazing solo!!!!!
Rudy had to quit around '77 due to health problems
lol true
I wanted to see Uli during the guitar solo, not Klaus doing an aerobics routine. Other than that, cool video.
Ehe, not to be bitchy, arrogant or upitty but as far as I know, Rudolf and Meine where the OnLY ones to have been in the band since it got formed. Jabs joined after Michael Schenker's second departure, if I remember/know correctly.
Rudolph wasn't on Lonesome Crow though..? Was he?
Not really, if you count Lonesome Crow. Also know that I meant today's Scorpions line-up.
0:06 LOL
I had heard that Herman was a bit of a drinker too..and almost had to leave as well, is that true?
hey dance as axel rose jajj
bilotin Axl Roses Dance Like Klaus.
dat a diss song right dere homie
I know if you check out the vid "I'm going mad" from
Lone-Crow here on youtube you'll see that its some other dude on drums...doesn't mean he was in the studio I suppose.
rock on bro!
