Acoustica

Description

For the first time in their then 30-year career, the Scorpions recorded a truly different new album in 2001. Acoustica was not cut in the studio but filmed and recorded live behind the walls of a Portuguese monastery, pure and without any electronic amplification, surrounded by the group’s fans. Classics such as “Wind of Change”, “Holiday“, “The Zoo“, “Send Me An Angel“ and “You And I“ are invigorated with an earthy power in this fresh acoustic setting. Brilliant arrangements of cover versions like “Love My Life“ are truly unadulterated rock’n‘ roll, and new compositions such as “When Love Kills Love“ demonstrate the powerful intensity yet sensitivity that the Scorpions combine so effectively. Filmed with 12 cameras, this exceptional live event is a unique experience.
