When Conny died at the age of only 47, his son Stephan was just 13 years old. Twenty-five years later, together with co-director Reto Caduff, he went in search of the man he often only experienced behind the mixing desk as a child. At the same time it became the search for the artistic legacy of his father.

At one point a few years back, Scorpions were planning to say their farewell, announcing that Sting in the Tail would be their final album and that they would close out their career with a massive tour. The band later reconsidered. The Live in Munich 2012 set was recorded at the band's final show of the tour, a homecoming gig at the Olympiahalle in Munich on Dec. 17, 2012 in what was truly an emotional show for the band members. The five-piece of Rudolf Schenker, Klaus Meine, Matthias Jabs, James Kottak and Pawel Maciwoda delivered a blistering set filled with the band's biggest hits.

A documentary on the acclaimed rock band Scorpions
Self
The Scorpions were one of the first rock bands from Germany, which also gained international fame. This documentary covers the history of the band.

2013 live release from the iconic German rockers. On September 11 and 12, 2013, the Scorpions played two fantastic acoustic sets in the Lycabettus theatre of Athens. The open-air theatre, which was designed by the Greek architect Takis Zenetos in 1965 is situated on Mount Lycabettus, at 300m height, and offers an impressive view of the Greek metropolis.
Live In Munich 2012 captures the final concert on the Scorpions Sting In The Tale world tour at the Olympiahalle in Munich on December 17th, 2012. Scorpions are one of the all-time great live rock bands and this concert is no exception with the band producing a high octane performance in front of a wildly enthusiastic crowd.
Scorpions hit the stage in a sea of lights for opener ‘Sting In The Tail’ and soon proved to Wacken that you don’t need to play fast and furious to be heavy with the slower tracks ‘Make It Real’ and the reggae flavour of ‘Is There Anybody There?’. The set consisted of tracks from ‘Love Drive’ and onwards from when Matthias Jabs became a permanent member of the Scorpions.

In August 2007, Germany’s most successful music export worldwide, the Scorpions, already ventured deep into the Brazilian jungle for a sold out show – in front of 40,000 enthusiastic fans the band played a concert in Manaus, the metropolis on the Amazon river. A cooperation with Greenpeace was already existent at this point and when the band returned to South America the next year, they happily intensified it. Kaus Meine, lead singer of the Scorpions, recollects, “Due to the unbelievable success we returned to Manaus in 2008, but we also played Rio, Sao Paulo and Recife again. During the show in Belem we accepted Greenpeace’s invitation to participate in a three-hour flight across the rainforest in order to get a picture of the proceeding destruction (an area twice the size of Germany has been destroyed by fire so far).

Celebrating their 35 anniversary, Germany’s most successful Heavy Metal band, Scorpions, invited former members Uli Jon Roth, Michael Schenker and Herman Rarebell to join them onstage at Wacken Open Air 2006. Billed as “A Night To Remember, A Journey Through Time”, the August 3rd performance’s setlist was voted on by fans around the world via the Scorpions’ website and witnessed by over 60,000 metalheads in attendance.

«Тяжелый металл» называют и совестью рок-н-ролла, и его могильщиком. С конца 1960-х и до наших дней это совершенно самостоятельная музыкальная вселенная со своими остывающими и сверхновыми звездами, своей табелью о рангах, своим кодексом чести. «Металлические» короли и их свита не обращают внимания на то, что происходит в других мирах.
В однообразии и нормативности «металлической» музыки - залог ее поразительной живучести. Здесь, как в каком-нибудь эстрадном свинге, достаточно было открыть пару-тройку эффектных ходов, чтобы создать целую эстетику. Навязчивый рифф, атакующий припев, инструментальное соло - три заповеди «тяжелого металла», объединенные идеей форсированного звука.

Recorded live on June 25th, 2004 in Vienna, Austria.
Track 15 recorded live in 2004 at Circus Krone in Munich, Germany.
"Acoustica" is a 2001 unplugged album by German hard rock band Scorpions. It was recorded during three concerts at the Convento do Beato in Lisbon, Portugal, in February 2001. It was a most unusual set for the band, as Klaus Meine comments on the DVD. The band was supported by backing vocalists, a percussionist, an extra guitarist and Christian Kolonovits (who had worked with the band as conductor and arranger on the Moment of Glory album) on keyboards. He also collaborated on rearranging the songs for the acoustic set. The band performed four new songs: "Life Is Too Short", "Back To You", "I Wanted To Cry" and "When Love Kills Love", which was released as single. All the new songs were featured on the DVD, while "Back To You" was not included on the CD. Acoustica also contains cover versions of songs such as The Cars' "Drive", Kansas' "Dust In The Wind" and the Queen hit "Love Of My Life".
A "reunion" concert of sorts, featuring the Scorpions biggest hits. Recorded at Hannover EXPO in June 2000, with Christian Kolonovits conducting the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. The live performance was filmed to be released in VHS and Video CD in December 2000.

Since the Scorpions' career was at its peak, World Wide Live could not have been recorded at a better time. This 19-track album contains all of their early-'80s hits, and while they aren't as energetic on-stage as they are in the studio, the band still perform with a great amount of flamboyance. The record is the Scorpions' only worthwhile live album and is a must for their fans.
