AMG Review of Best of the Scorpions, Vol. 2

Stephen Thomas Erlewine
All Music Guide

The Best of the Scorpions, Vol. 2 contains ten songs from the Scorpions' late-'70s and early-'80s records, prior to their crossover hits "No One Like You" and "Rock You Like a Hurricane." As a result, there's not much here that the average metalhead will be intimately familiar with, but it does capture some of the highlights from those records, including "Top of the Bill," "They Need a Million," "Catch Your Train," "Long for Fire," and live versions of "Speedy's Coming," "All Night Long," and "Well Burn the Sky."
