[Dark Schneider]

Les bonus n'ont pas l'air dégueux, je prendrais bien les 2 qui me manquent en cd : Animal Magnetism et Savage Amusement.

[Mordor]

J'ai déjà "tokyo tapes" en double cd. A voir les bonus. De toute façon, ça m'intéresse de "Taken by force" jusqu'à "Blackout".

[Yathin Lizzy]

Pour Blackout j'aurais espéré que les démos soient celles initialement enregistrées avec Don Dokken au chant (lorsque Meine avait des problèmes de voix). Elles n'ont jamais vu le jour... Mais ça m'étonnerait.

ça fait des années que j'attends ça, mais à mon avis on peut s'assoir dessus. Surtout si c'est mieux chanté que par Meine.

[lelite]

Les bonus sont sympa avec les démos , je vais me prendre le Blackout en souvenir de mon premier concert et le savage amusement qui me manque.

[guardianofsteel]

Le groupe a publié une chanson inédite issue des démos de la session Blackout datant de 82 et qui figurera sur la réédition!

[ominergy]

Pour Blackout j'aurais espéré que les démos soient celles initialement enregistrées avec Don Dokken au chant (lorsque Meine avait des problèmes de voix). Elles n'ont jamais vu le jour... Mais ça m'étonnerait.

Je suis allé une fois chez un gars dans le nord, énorme fan de Dokken, qui possède un cassette avec ces enregistrements, je l'ai vue sans l'écouter , Il m'a dit que c'est Don Dokken qui lui aurait donné...

retournes y et récupère la, c'est collector ce truc.
Moi les démos de Blackout avec Meine au chant, je m'en bats les couilles, je veux celles avec Dokken.

[Thrashos]

Je le trouve bon mais assez anecdotique perso, pas sureprenant qu'il ait été écarté de l'album à l'époque. Après comparé à maintenant hein...

C'est quand même étonnant qu'aucune trace de ces enregistrements ne soient trouvables...

[Bertrand]

C'est quand même étonnant qu'aucune trace de ces enregistrements ne soient trouvables...

sûrement parce qu'elles sonnent mieux avec Dokken qu'avec Meine ...

[weik]

Et puis Klaus Meine est pas mal le patron à bord. Cela m'étonnerait qu'il donne son accord pour que ces bandes (si elles ont été conservées) voient le jour. Et puis tant qu'on y est, pourquoi pas ressortir les bandes avec Rondinelli à la batterie (pendant que ze german était en cure de désintox) !

[the fab]

Et puis tant qu'on y est, pourquoi pas ressortir les bandes avec Rondinelli à la batterie (pendant que ze german était en cure de désintox) !

Je ne connais pas cette histoire.

Je ne connais pas cette histoire.

Pour les demos de blackout, en plus de dokken au chant, Rondinelli était derrière les fûts (pendant que herman rarebell était en cure de desintox à cause de son addiction à l'alcool).

Ces rééditions cartonnent dans les charts allemands :

According to RadioAndMusic.com, six of the SCORPIONS albums have simultaneously placed on the German chart after being reissued as deluxe editions earlier this month. The albums, released by BMG, were originally produced by Dieter Dierks, and have been re-released as part of the band's massive 50th-anniversary celebrations. They are "Blackout" (1982) which entered the chart at No. 43; "Love At First Sting" (1984), which landed at No. 46; "World Wide Live" (1985), which came in at No. 52; "Lovedrive" (1979), which entered the chart at No. 59; "Tokyo Tapes" (1978), which landed at No. 70; and "Scorpions Deluxe Vinyl Box Set", which came in at No. 97.

SCORPIONS' new feat makes them the fifth music act to have six or more albums place on the German charts at the same time. Other artists to have also achieved the milestone include THE BEATLES, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson and James Last.

D'après l’interview de Meine dans rock hard, il n'aurait jamais entendu les enregistrement de Dokken et que c'est Dieter Diet qui aurait effacé ces bandes avec Dokken car trop chères à l'époque de les conserver, en y superposant les vocaux de Meine.

[Everflow]

Michael Schenker est très remonté contre Scorpions, car selon lui la biographie du coffret de rééditions est complètement fausse le concernant. Les crédits du premier album seraient également galvaudés.

Il a également une phrase très dure envers son frère, exagérée et pas du tout appropriée pour une interview publique... mais pas totalement fausse sur le fond.

In a brand new interview with Gigs And Festivals, legendary German guitarist Michael Schenker spoke about what it was like playing in the earliest days of the SCORPIONS alongside his brother Rudolf. He said: "There are things that I know today, and I must say I'm actually very disappointed in my brother and the SCORPIONS these days, because I just found out that a lot of things have been incorrect in the past. Me, being seven years younger than the other guys, I think I was taken advantage of right from the beginning."

He continued: "I wrote most of the SCORPIONS songs on the 'Lonesome Crow' album, and it was credited to all members. The very first song I ever wrote was 'In Search Of The Peace Of Mind', and it too was credited to all members. I was focusing on music, and they were maybe focusing on business. I have no idea, but they didn't know how to write songs in those days."

Asked if he has any plans to get up on stage with the SCORPIONS before they call it a day, Michael said: "I don't pay attention to any of that. I focus on what I'm doing. I'm fed up with that, and I'm disappointed in them; they have completely distorted the 'Lovedrive' phase. Just a few weeks ago, I was confronted with the SCORPIONS [albums reissue] box, and what I saw there, it really, really shocked me. I can't trust them anymore. The whole 'Lovedrive' story is wrong. They are putting it down as if I begged them to take me into the SCORPIONS. They begged me to join — I was already doing arena tours with UFO in the States. It's unbelievable. They asked me to help them, and now I see that the whole 'Lovedrive' story is written to their favor; they are the big guys."

He continued: "I can't believe it, honestly. They're just fooling people with their finishing playing, and then they don't, and then [they continue playing] forever and ever. I guess when you get older, you get bolder or something, but I have absolutely no interest because I can't trust them. If I look back now, it's unbelievable, little bits and pieces I'm discovering. So putting together the whole picture, it looks like they're absolutely desperate."

According to Michael, the difference between him and his brother is that "one can play and the other one can't! [Laughs] That's how you can find out who is who. Or you look at the eyes; his eyes are brown, but he can fake that too by getting blue lenses. Rudolf is the entertainer on a visual level; I'm the artist."

Hummm.. Michael Schenker est-il plus digne de confiance que son frère ? C'est vrai que ces dernières années SCORPIONS c'est le business avant tout, mais de là à se voir comme un artiste parce que lui il saurait écrire des morceaux et sort régulièrement des albums... euh, il est gentil, mais tout ses albums récents (enfin récents, depuis quasiment 20 ans !) sont très anecdotiques musicalement, même si Rudolf compose beaucoup moins désormais, le peu qu'il fait restera toujours plus marquant que le stakhanovisme de son frangin. Quant aux histoires sur Lonesome crow et Lovedrive, il a peut-être raison, mais je crois savoir que M. Schenker était très réputé pour avoir été dans le brouillard à cette époque.

[Bertrand]

Il était très dans le brouillard période Loverdrive. Il s'est écroulé sur scène à Lyon, et ce fût son dernier concert avec le groupe.

Trop fort le Michael , il s'écroule lors d'un concert auquel il n'a pas participé . C'est Jabs qui jouait à Lyon ,Michael a claqué la porte deux ou trois jours avant au Mans après avoir assuré le concert de façon tout à fait normal .Du coup Scorpions a rappellé Jabs à la rescousse ( entre la date du mans et celle de Lyon , un seul concert a été annulé.

[Bertrand]

Curieux, j'ai souvent lu que c'était à Lyon ou il est tombé sur scène.

Michael Schenker a la dent dure et enfonce le clou sur son frère :

Jimmy Kay and Alan Dixon of Canada's The Metal Voice recently conducted an interview with legendary German guitarist Michael Schenker (UFO, SCORPIONS). You can now listen to the chat in the YouTube clip below.

Asked if he would ever consider recording with the SCORPIONS again, Michael said: "No. I can't, because I'm very disappointed in Rudolf [Schenker, SCORPIONS guitarist and Michael's brother]. What I have found out about the 'Lovedrive' bio [that is included in the recently released 50th-anniversary deluxe edition of the album] is completely wrong.

"When I was 23, I finished with UFO. I did 'Strangers In The Night'. We had hits in '76 with 'Lights Out' and 'Too Hot To Handle' and 'Only You Can Rock Me'. The SCORPIONS always copied what UFO did.

"When Rudolf found out I had left UFO and Mathias [Jabs, SCORPIONS guitarist], who had just joined, couldn't do the album with the SCORPIONS to their liking, they asked me to help out. I came over. I was 23; Rudolf was already 30. And when I finished my work on the SCORPIONS 'Lovedrive' album, they didn't wanna let me go, so they got rid of Matthias. And so they basically persuaded me to be in the SCORPIONS after the 'Lovedrive' recording, and all the management in America, they all were very interested in wanting to sign the SCORPIONS. I put on my black-and-white suit and my black-and-white guitar and started touring, [but] after two weeks, I just couldn't do it. I ran away and I was too shy to confront them; I just couldn't do it. My brother found me. He called me back. He cried on the phone, [and] it was so embarrassing. I came back a second time. After the second time, I realized, 'This is not it. I need to stop this,' and I ran away again. [A short time later] I found out that they got Matthias back — they persuaded him to come back — and that was that. Then, a bit later, I get a phone call from Rudolf [asking me] if I would let him play my black-and-white guitar design. I said, 'Okay.' And then he also asked me if I would give him the songwriting credits for 'Coast To Coast'. All the melodies were written by me, and I didn't pay attention. I was the sixth part of the 'Lovedrive' album, and I had a contract that everything was divided by six."

He continued: "When they approached me just recently for the SCORPIONS [50th-anniversary deluxe edition reissues of their albums], I found out that they put a bio out that was a complete[ly] wrong story. I found out that there was nobody credited for what I wrote on 'Holiday'. It's the intro to 'Holiday', it's forty-five seconds long — that's the intro that I wrote but nobody got credit for it. And then Rudolf asked me to give him the melodies for 'Coast To Coast' and with my black-and-white guitar. And those two things were the most tastiest things and easiest parts to copy, because Rudolf is not really a great guitarist; he can just about play. But that was something, him being a Schenker and now having blond hair, and all the managers finding out, they wanted to sign that band the SCORPIONS where I was part of, I guess he figured out how he can misrepresent and fool people over the years, because I didn't pay any attention until just recently. I found out that there was not a picture of me on 'Lovedrive', there was no mention on 'Holiday' who wrote and played that intro, and, of course, Rudolf persuaded me to give him the 'Coast To Coast' melodies. And so I'm very disappointed with that. And I must say I'm now finding out more and more weird stuff about Rudolf."

Michael added: "I have to stay away from him and I can't trust him anymore — period."
