Scorpions on German TV and more News
February 2nd, 2012 by ScottGerman hard rock veterans SCORPIONS performed on the January 30 edition of “TV Total”, a German late-night television comedy talk show. The played two songs: the classic SCORPIONS track “Rock You Like A Hurricane” and a cover of the GLORIA JONES song “Tainted Love”. Video footage of their appearance can be viewed by following these links:
* “Tainted Love”: http://tvtotal.prosieben.de/tvtotal/videos/player/index.html?contentId=128268&initialTab=related&showId=1710-00
* “Rock You Like A Hurricane”: http://tvtotal.prosieben.de/tvtotal/videos/player/index.html?contentId=128269&initialTab=related&showId=1710-00
SCORPIONS’ “Comeblack”, a new album of classic rock covers and fresh performances of signature repertoire recorded last year, sold around 5,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 90 on The Billboard 200 chart.
Interview with Rudy Schenker:
Guitarist Rudolf Schenker of German hard rock veterans SCORPIONS tells Billboard.com that fans can expect to see a slew of “special” releases from the band after it completes its massive farewell tour in early 2013.
“We have a library in our warehouse where we have a lot of old songs, especially from the days where you had only the possibility of putting eight or nine songs on vinyl,” the guitarist says. “We always recorded 13 or 14 songs, so (the rest) are hanging out somewhere in our warehouse. We also have 800, 900 hours of film material from different festivals, from places like (Moscow’s) Red Square, the Amazon, the pyramids, going through Russia in 2002…”
He adds, “Of course we want to give this material to the fans. It would be terrible for this material to be hanging in our warehouse and not get out. So when we are finished (touring), we’ll take our time and give people some special stuff.”
