we lost our father 34 years ago this song IS us...Now MOM went to his arms on Jan 9th 2012 Burn the sky could not be tailored more personally tailored to deliver the absolute strength i feel and we will be blasting it (it would be a dream to perform it) at her graduation party!!XXOOX scotty
@timjessa1 Hell yeah, tough call man!! Emerson, Lake & Palmer "Welcome Back My Friends.." is another stellar live recording, as is Rainbow "Finyl Vinyl" and Raven "Live at the Inferno"
Please check out my piano videos search:Feltovich tell me what you think..
It took me months of savings to buy this DOUBLE LP in 1979, (I was 12 years old) and I still have it !!! One of my all time favorites..LONG LIVE SCORPS!
@LiverpoolGreece4ever in 1979 double LP Albums were at about $13 - 16 US Dlls, BUT in those days Mexico was in deep foreign debt and the exchange rate with USDollar was $24 x 1 US, so doing the math I paid about 350 Mex, which was a loooot of money , specially for a 12 yro kid.. :O DID I TOOK CARE OF THOSE VYNILS? YOU BET!!
I was a child when I listenen to the Scoropions Tokyo Tapes from my neibourgh Manolo's home. I borrowed him the twin L.P. and I remember I finished the disc voice. Hahahaha. I had to buy a new L.P. to my friend. From then, Scorpions is in my life. When I need energy and force to go on, I get Tokyo Tapes in my Ipod, and nobody can stop me!!. Thanks a lot Scorpions. Long Life Tokyo Tapes!!. ¡¡¡Gracias Manolo!!!. Hapiness for the world from Barcelona.
@Bertrand50120 On vient de numériser LE mien vinyl à numériser , il craque à peine... Un miracle ! Et c'est toujours aussi bon, aussi puissant surtout après un quart de siècle à ne pas avoir pu l'écouter !
i remember 1979, sneaking off to South San West Campus high school in san antonio wearing my brother's tokyo tapes tee shirt. and then having to rush home and taking it off, putting it back in his closet before he got there. lol the crazy things we did back then. was always a fan of the scorps!
C'est un super titre que cette chanson engerisgistrée en 1978..super groupe que j'aime beaucoup..un live à découvrir pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas..à savourer pour les autres qui suivent Scorpions depuis longtemps..!!
@drkshad0 Actually he says "This song is from our new album Taken By Force - We'll Burn The Sky". I must have listened to the cassette 50 times before I understood it, though!!!
Obviously the Lone Person who disliked this video Knows Nothing of the Musical Genious of the Early Scorpions!!!!....What a JACKASS!!!!
