Probably A Dumb Question, But...

[Walter_Langkowski]

...Is the Scorpions album "Lovedrive" worth picking up used for $5.40? This is available to me and I don't have this one. It is from 1979 and I recognize some of the songs like "Loving You Sunday Morning" and "Holiday". Yeah, $5.40 is pretty cheap, but I wanted some opinions first.

Thoughts?

 

[Electric Savage]

Fuck yeah it is! It's ESSENTIAL!!!

I once boucht a disk by a band named Crypt Kicker with 3 songs and it was $1.50 it was not worth it at all, but I'd buy anything Scorpions if I could get my fat ass hands on them, that is If they arren't covered in cheese and pickles.
later RJAIII.

Nice.

If only I was fat, it would be funnier and saddening at the same time.

Yes Walter, yes. At that price go for it undoubtedly. It marks the end of Uli Roth era and the beginning of Jabbs era, is a great transition album and has really neat tunes like 'Holiday', 'Another Piece Of Meat' and the great 'Is There Anybody There?'

What's up Wyvern ,man, hows it goin'?

[madcheese9377]

Ahhh, I don't hang around too much, but I like to read every once in a while to get some kicks.
got a new comp. but I messed it up and am gonna fix it soon, but it'll be a while till I get internet.
I just keep on workin' and tryin' to record more demo stuff, Painting my guitar new color, ONLY THE GREATEST COLOR IN THE WORLD SINCE THE INVENTION OF BLACK, Grey. yep.
(note that the above statements of inventions are somewhat false)
well I gotta go bro, see you around, and don't trip and scrape your knees.later.

I don't wanna know how you know that

 

[Trans-Siberian Outcast]

Lovedrive is actually my favorite Scorps album, so I'd say yes, it is well worth $5.40.

 

[royboy]

I bought it new and I thought it was worth plus in the booklet some girl is showing her tits.

Good point. I've paid a helluva lot more than $5.40 to see a girl's tits before...and that didn't include 36 minutes of killer music.

Turns out I got ripped off on those more expensive boob sightings.

 

[Wicked Child]

Dude, it's worth buying NEW! That's their best album, IMO.

 

[Mxgonzo]

Oh HELL YEAH! LOVEDRIVE is a must have. For $5.40 get it. I'm surprised Walt that you don't have this one already.

 

[SoundMaster]

Pick it up ASAP!

It is easily their best, and it's a masterwork of late 70s metal.
Literally every song is brilliant...it's heavy, yet it has the classic Scorps ballads which they used to do so well (their recent ballads have embarrassingly bad).

Heck, the CD is worth $100 alone just for the beautiful "Always Somewhere" and "Is There Anybody There?".

Awesome release.

 

[kittybeast]

whole heartily agrees with what everyone says.. BUY IT!

 

[#1_Droogie]

you see, you have two options here.....
1) you can take everybody's advice and get the cd, or
2) you can be a "winner" and piss everybody off and NOT get the album

i'd go with #1...but i just wanted to remind you of your options

Winner didnt piss me off ... but I knew as soon as he started postin he would Piss ppl off I welcomed him with open arms because of that basiclly because I knew it would be fucking funny once everybody got pissed
