My Seventh Album

I had this album on vinyl when I was in the third grade.  It was my first Scorpions album so I was pretty excited.  I can't exactly remember, but I think my brother Steve bought it for me.  Something the Scorpions were always known for was their provocative album covers.  How my parents allowed me to have this album is puzzling but I had it and listened to it often.  In addition to the song "Rock You Like a Hurricane" that I discussed in this post Love at First Sting had many other excellent songs.  Some of them include "Bad Boys Running Wild" (Great opening guitar riff by lead guitarist Mathias Jabs), "I'm Leaving You," "Coming Home," "Big City Nights," and "Still Loving You."  All of these songs were major hits from what was arguably the Scorpions best album.
