3. My personal taste

The form of the list is "Band - Trademark Album For The Singer"

Scorpions Ranked 🦂

Scorpions one of my favorite bands, in the last couple of years I started listen much often the 70’s records and those records grows up on me.
The band of the seventies is hard heavy and obscure, with Uli Roth amazing guitar work, thats why I change completely the original my maybe order of this list.

Pioneers on the hard rock and early heavy metal scene in Germany.
Scorpions started in late 60’s, in 1972 they recorded their debut album, the band's only album with lead guitarist Michael Schenker – just 16 at the time of the recording – as a full-time member. He soon left to join UFO and was replaced by Ulrich Roth until 1978. After that the band lead by Klaus Meine And Rudolph Schenker wrote the most famous songs and music and got the recognition and worldwide success.

1.Scorpions - Taken By Force
2.Scorpions - In Trance
3.Scorpions - Virgin Killer
4.Scorpions - Fly To The Rainbow
5.Scorpions - Lonesome Crow

Metal At The End Of The 70’s 78-79

Most significant records at the end of the first era of metal music.
The last year of the decade shows how some bands face the eighties with the menace of punk and disco music some bands take advantage of that like Kiss sounds more pop other like Motörhead goes harder, Judas Priest finish those years as a leaders of the Euro HM. Rush made their last epic record, Ronnie James Dio leave Rainbow, Black Sabbath made their last record with Ozzy and AC/DC lost Bon Scott. Saxon maybe starts in what became in the NWOBHM and lots of new bands emerged like Riot with their frenetic heavy metal, Van Halen made the first couple of self titled records with a new sound based on the virtuosity of Eddie Van Halen.

1.Rush - Hemispheres
2.AC/DC - Highway To Hell
3.KISS - Dynasty
4.Van Halen - Van Halen
5.Van Halen - Van Halen II
