Scorpions Blackout Remastered (CD)

Title: Blackout Remastered Condition: New Format: CD EAN: 0731453478626 Genre: Metal Description: This deluxe reissue features 20-bit remastering from the original master tape and enhanced packaging faithful to the original album release. Track listing: "Blackout," "Can't Live Without You," "No One Like You," "You Give Me All I Need," "Now!," "Dynamite," "Arizona," "China White" and "When the Smoke Is Going Down." German heavy metal marauders Scorpions recorded seven studio records before breaking in to the U.S. market in 1982 with Blackout. The album became the group's first platinum disc in the U.S., and the dynamic single "No One Like You" became a staple of album rock radio. While the Scorpions had created powerful anthems and epic rockers in the past, Blackout mixed the ingredients just right. The title track was an endorphin rush of fast-riffing guitars and electrified, high-pitched vocals that culminated with the sound of shattering glass. "Can't Live Without You" was a powerful melange of flash, firepower, and pure melody, and the slow, surging "China White" sounded like a psychedelic interpretation of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir." After years of ignored visas, Scorpions had finally arrived in America. --Jon Wiederhorn Release Date: 1997 Type: Hard Rock Artist: Scorpions No Of Discs: 1 Country/Region of Manufacture: USA Record Label: Import Language: English Release Year: 1997
