Scorpions- Crazy World
One of the first rock albums I ever received was a cassette tape of the Scorpions "Crazy World". This was back in 1991. I was in the 6th grade and the U.S. had just finished up what was the first gulf war in Iraq. This album was excellent and I'm not sure too many casual rock fans reall know about it. The one song everyone know is "Wind of Change". A great balld written about amny of the changes that were happening in the world at the time. In particular, the fall of the Berlin Wall.But this album contains almosyt no bad songs. It kicks off with a great song about hooking up with women called "Tease Me, Please Me". It continues with other great tracks such as "Don't Believe Her", "Hit Between The Eyes","To Be With You In Heaven", "Crazy World" and almost an even better ballad than the one previously mentioned a song called" Send Me An Angel". This album really exposed me to great heavey metal from a great f"in band with a singer who can really belt out his vocals, Mr. Klaause Meine. I highly recommend this album. I get excited just thinking about the great music it holds. It really brings me back to that precious time in my life hwne I was just starting to figure out the world in terms of things like love, politics and just feeling good about yourself.
Album Quote:
" The wind of change,Blows straight into the face of time, Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell, For peace of mind, Let your balalaika sing, What my guitar wants to say"
