The founder of the group is to Rudolf Schenker (Rudolf Schenker). Since childhood, the guy just simply always had to deal with music - his parents were musicians (his mother played the piano, my father on the violin), Rudolf himself mastered the guitar. And when he had a "elektruha" interest in the instrument woke up at his younger brother Michael (Michael Schenker). Brother - a self-taught taught Michael and soon he was eager to play in the group - the guy has not yet completed the first ten. It was around 1966, the year when Rudy Schenker with his Hanoverian comrades founded the Scorpions.

In 70, the pair left the band to join the SCORPIONS. Michael playing the guitar almost has no better teacher-brother, and Klaus with his awesome expressive voice perfectly fit into the group. Basit took Lothar Haynberga (Lothar Heinberg). The first thing the group has been writing and recording the soundtrack to the German feature film called "The Cold Paradise", and then record their debut album "Lonesome Crow" (1972.) That the guys recorded and mixed in just 6-7 days.

Unique style SCORPIONS turned into a combination of two electric guitars: an unusually powerful riffs and solos with dazzling ornate. Soon "Scorpio" opening for Rory Gallagher (Rory Gallagher), Uriah Heep and UFO. By the way the younger Schenker after a joint tour went to the UFO in 1973, to replace guitarist Mick Bolton. Rudolf and Klaus drafted into the army - SCORPIONS split up.

After his military service in the Bundeswehr they first joined the group a good friend Ulrich Roth (Ulrich Roth) called DAWN ROAD, but at the last minute they were able to lure him to her, to revive the "Scorpio". Also, taking a new bassist Francis Buchholz (Francis Buchholz) and drummer Jurgen Rosenthal (Urgen Rosenthal), signed a record deal with RCA and recorded their second CD "Fly To The Rainbow". Do not have time to settle down Jurgen in the team, as he received a summons to the army. In his place was invited Lennersa Rudy (Rudy Lenners). Together with him Scorpions went on his first foreign tour and were the opening act for the famous British glam rockers THE SWEET.

At the same time, Michael Schenker also parted with UFO, but not in the same friendly atmosphere as Roth. In SCORPIONS accepted it, but the place really Rota claimed another good musician Matthias Jabs (Matthias Jabs). Schenker Jr. took the same place as lead guitarist, relegating to second place Jabs, playing on three tracks of the new album "Lovedrive" (1979). On tour, they went without the Matthias, but after a half touring Michael soundly drunk and stabbed, and during one of the concerts at all fainted on stage, he had to give up his place in the group of Matthias Yabsu and again to join the UFO. scorpions goldV face Jabs SCORPIONS had finally found a lead guitarist, whose enthusiasm, virtuosity and creativity made ​​a decisive contribution to the success of the group.

Album is very "alive" in the tradition of the hard rock of the time. To this day, the song from the album is one of the "cut-awaysВ» SCORPIONS.

In the period from 1980 to 1981, the guys toured. As a result - before recording "Blackout" (1982) failed eliminated Klaus Meine. In his larynx

operatic vocal teachers. And he managed to give himself up to the final recording of the album "Blackout", furthermore the whole group noticed a vocal singer. As a result, the disc went platinum and won the award "Best Hard Rock Album of the Year."

In '85 they released th second live album - "World Wide Live" - ​​a kind of summing up the creative period, after which the group goes to the well-deserved vacation.

"Savage Amusement" (1988), the latest album, Produced by Dieter Dierks, was released in 1988. He reached the 3rd place in the American charts and # 1 - European.

"Unbreakable" (2004) blew up the world! Fans do not expect the return of their lyubimtsev.scorpions But now it was not there - SCORPIONS back to life by writing the worst after "Face The Heat" album. In July 2005, goes DVD В«Unbreakable World Tour 2004 - One Night in Vienna LiveВ», which consists of 2 parts: one devoted primarily to the concert in Vienna, which was held in the summer of 2004, on an island in the Danube, and the second part - is a unique material "Rockumentary" - a very extensive history of the band SCORPIONS: interviews, private video clips and much more, which makes it quite deeply into the history of the group. And in August 2006, the SCORPIONS were invited to perform at the landmark festival Wacken Open Air - after the show called it historic. At the concert, performed the songs for all the years of the band, and played on stage with the current Scorpions, Uli Jon Roth, Michael Schenker, Herman Rarebell and Tyson Schenker.

In 2007 saw the release of the last to date disk SCORPIONS - "Humanity: Hour I". It's a concept album, which tells about the two major themes: the fate of mankind, and of course, the relationship of man and woman. The main difference from the previous disk "Unbreakable" is that this time the songs are not just hits, but also much more interesting as a musical point of view and from the point of view of the semantic load. And if the title is a hint of incompleteness, there is great hope for the "Hour 2" - SCORPIONS alive, energetic and as relevant as ever !!!
