From because the air is out

Clear sound like Scorpions Scorpions once Klaus Meine sound his killer tube leaves. But otherwise this album delivers (annoying that a distinction is made between normal and deluxe version, your strange marketing strategists ...) a few fresh sounds that I would not necessarily attribute the guys. And I know and hear them since Lonesome Crow. It is also clear that here * also * much mainstream is delivered. And the inevitable power ballads, which I like to pick out Gipsy Life.
Return To Forever, I would still not want to describe as a remake of any Scorp slices of recent time. Here's a couple of fine rock'n'roll numbers like Going Out With A Bang, rock'n'roll band and The Scratch that goes even more toward rockabilly (with beautiful solos by Matthias Jabs), and a few unusual rock numbers as Rollin 'Home, which starts rousing, but then rather flattened in a Mitklatschnummer. A little reminded of any title of Queen (I Want To Break Free) much more even in The World We Used To Know (only on the deluxe edition), but there are no keyboards. The polyphonic guitar sounds still like that.
Atypical rock numbers are When The Truth Is A Lie (De Luxe album), Rock My Car, and not typical is also the emerging again, partly hymnal (Background) -Chorgesang. That there has been already, but not so intense and sometimes schmaltzy (so I feel it sometimes) like on this disc. Then we are still counting Who We Are (Caution lard risk) to then it must be clear that this album has a rather atypical for the Scorpions variation. It is not only familiar things here, but obviously a few numbers who wanted the "guys" to get rid times. Included is on the Deluxe version the previously presented only in the last Unplugged album live Dancing With The Moonlight.
All in all for me but a disc with some really good numbers!
Ultimately, it is with the Scorp as the newspaper with the large letters: Nobody pretends to read (hear) it, but supposedly know the most but what's in it. The troops must be embarrassing anyone. But that is only seen in the homeland of Scorp's so .... why?
