Product Description

Dive into the electrifying world of Scorpions with their 1977 album "Taken by Force," now remastered for an even more immersive experience. This hard rock and glam metal masterpiece is a testament to the band's enduring legacy and their ability to craft timeless anthems. The album opens with the fiery "Steamrock Fever," setting the stage for a high-energy journey through tracks like "We'll Burn the Sky" and "I've Got to Be Free," which showcase the band's signature blend of raw power and melodic finesse.

"Taken by Force" is not just a collection of songs; it's a snapshot of a band at the peak of their creative powers. The Scorpions deliver a potent mix of hard-hitting rockers and soulful ballads, with standout tracks like "The Riot of Your Time" and "The Sails of Charon" demonstrating their versatility and depth. The album also includes demos and unfinished instrumentals, offering a fascinating glimpse into the creative process behind the final tracks.

With a runtime of just over an hour, "Taken by Force" is a comprehensive journey through the Scorpions' signature sound. From the glam metal swagger of "He's a Woman – She's a Man" to the bluesy grooves of "Midnight Blues Jam," this album is a must-listen for any fan of classic rock. The remastered tracks bring out the best in the Scorpions' iconic sound, making this a must-have addition to any music collection.

This 2023 Reissue Remastered Special Edition LP is pressed on White vinyl.

  • Great Album

    5 out of 5 stars
    farmupq39 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    Awesome all analogue pressing, super tight and punchy bass and Klaus Meine's vocals really shine throughYou will not be disappointed

  • Vinyl Missed Potential

    4 out of 5 stars
    Rakeden_Cganvt5 March 2025United States🇺🇸

    This vinyl record is absolutely amazing, yet it seems like a chance was missed. If they'd done a bit of remastering to make the vocals stand out more, and perhaps reduced some of the vocal reverb, it could've been a true vinyl treasure.

  • Pristine Promo Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    Misrw-HQ24 November 2024United States🇺🇸

    Discovered a pristine, unopened promo copy with a gold stamp. It's absolutely incredible!

  • Crisp Sound, Mediocre Art

    5 out of 5 stars
    ncxxuzreurb21 November 2024United States🇺🇸

    Great pressing, the mix - guitar, vocals, bass, drums - is really well done, sounds crisp and full. The cover art? - they could've done better… perhaps just black with the Scorpions logo. I'm eager to compare it with this: https://www.discogs.com/de/release/27014130-Scorpions-Taken-By-Force

  • Phenomenal Rock Album Sound

    5 out of 5 stars
    xeczvmdacyt113 October 2024United States🇺🇸

    Oh my god-AMAZING sound! Massive dynamic range. Bass goes so deep. Drums hit hard and pack a punch-cymbals sparkle. Guitars and vocals/backing vocals are crystal clear with great distinction. Acoustic guitar sounds like it's right there in your space. You can hear every little note fade away. No noise in the quiet parts. One of the top rock albums for sound quality I've ever listened to. This album has completely blown me away. *It's all in the grooves, just waiting to be set free.*Reviewed on-Linn LP12/Ekos/Ortofon Windfeld ti/Dynavector D-75/Bel Canto eVo2i/Shahinian Arc. (Full Ringmat system/Linn Silver interconnects/Kimber 8TC loudspeaker cables+ears recently microsuction cleaned). PHENOMENAL RELEASE.
