Throughout the 1980s, "We are the Scorpions!" was lead vocalist Klaus Meine's concert-opening battle cry, energizing and readying the faithful in sold-out stadiums for a Teutonic onslaught of vital, sometimes plodding, eardrum-splitting rock anthems. In short, the arena-rock monsters were never a picnic-under-the-stars kind of band ... until Moment of Glory. The new millennium brings the Scorpions full circle, melding in-your-face party anthems like "Rock You Like a Hurricane" (now called "Hurricane 2000") and "Big City Nights" into fully orchestrated concoctions featuring the Berlin Philharmoniker. Where the grandiose likes of "Wind of Change" and "Still Loving You" are obvious choices for such a pairing, and indeed, work well, the "Deadly Sting Suite," with almost unrecognizable instrumental versions of "He's a Woman, She's a Man" and "Dynamite," will likely catch the unknowing fan of classic Scorps off guard. Both Deep Purple and Metallica have used full orchestras to accent their songs with mixed results, and the same goes for the Scorps. There's a fine line between wine-and-cheese classical fare and whiney and cheesy metal. Here the Scorpions teeter, if often gracefully, on that line. --Katherine Turman

4 out of 5 stars Got me hooked on Scorpions.......2007-04-12

I absolutely love the marriage of rock and symphony here. It's gorgeous. The Scorpions take already amazing songs and pump them up an extra notch. A long time ago I heard "Still Loving You" on the radio, not knowing who sung it. It took me years to finally discover the Scorpions. I own two different versions of "Still Loving You," and I far prefer this one to the original. It gives me this yearning inside. The only thing I don't like about this album is the guest vocalists. I love Klaus Meine. He adds an ethereal element to the music, and with the guest vocals, it takes away from the beauty, in my opinion. But don't let that deter you from getting this, because it is so worth it. "Rock You Like a Hurricane" is amazing! It's all amazing!

5 out of 5 stars Moment of Glory.......2007-04-01

With metal music it is always louder is better and this album found one of the coolest ways to make metal louder. Combining the Scorpions with a the Philharmonic creates one of the coolest sounding albums I have ever heard.

5 out of 5 stars [].......2007-03-14

i dont own this album but i have heard the songs off of it and i think their all great and performed well. and also as a side note since i read alot of comments about the guest vocals on "big city nights" but no mention of who: it is Ray Wilson best known for replacing Phill Collins in Genesis and recording the classic Calling all Stations

1 out of 5 stars dynamite!.......2002-10-21

Just when you think the scorpions couldn't do worst...they prove you wrong!
Even Metallica's s&m is better...close but still.
I am sure that it was a great experience to live, for the band and the audience, because that type of event is always unique and can bring strong emotions-unless you have a dumb..s sitting next to you, drinkin' beer and screaming every five minutes Dynamiiiiiiite!!-but on cd...for me it doesn't do it,but it probably is a treasure for those who were there.
Now, I'm not gonna start the debat with DEEP PURPLE and the LSO(1999) but I was there at the Royal Albert Hall and that's why I can understand the concept and the thrill of holding the recording of such concerts...but still DEEP PURPLE 's symphonic album features something that neither Scorpions or Metallica holds...and this is an ORIGINAL PIECE OF MUSIC CREATED FOR A GROUP AND A ORCHESTRA!

5 out of 5 stars Truly a Moment of Glory for the Scorpions!.......2002-07-31

AWESOME is how I would sum up this CD. From the moment I first heard it, I knew I HAD to have it. Buy it! You won't be disappointed!

4 out of 5 stars Good stuff.......2003-11-15

I picked up this album mainly because of the low price and was suprised that it had a lot of good tracks. It's really a greatest hits CD.

5 out of 5 stars the best band.......2000-03-25

Back in the 80's the scorpions were not my favorite band, but i picked up this cd mainly for the bargain price- and was totally blown away! They have an awesome sound, the songs are all catchy and the level of musicanship is very high. I only regret not giving them a chance before. Pick up this album! It's a must have.

    Purely acoustic music, capturing the array of experiences of the city landscape at night. Where the sounds of jazz and blues and R'n'B float as a soundtrack to the time of day we are our most hopeful, and our most vulnerable.

    5 out of 5 stars A Stand-out Album - BUY IT!.......2001-11-08

    Fantastic performances on this album - every time I give it a listen, I find myself pausing whatever I'm doing for a few minutes to fully enjoy the track. The CD is very well produced and nicely balanced, and tracks are nicely sequenced.

    What I really like, and what makes this CD different from the rest, is that the vocalist E.J. Decker shares the spotlight with the guys in the band, who turn in superb performances. It's like being in a New York nightclub -- the singer takes a little breather, and the musicians are having such a great time they just keep going 'til the vocalist jumps back in.

    From toe-tappers to smoky ballads, you'll really enjoy this slice of New York nightlife - BUY IT!

    4 out of 5 stars Goin' to Kansas City (via Toronto).......2006-05-03


    I have a feeling pianist Jay McShann, who had already made a number of recordings for Sackville in Toronto, had a lot to do with getting this album made. McShann is "Mr. Kansas City" himself (taking nothing away from Bill Basie), and here's a collection of KC favorites, most of them first made famous by McShann or the Count years earlier. It's good to hear them again, and the bandmembers, most representing a younger generation, interpret them well.

    McShann is the pianist here, too, and can be heard to good effect on just about every number. He also sings on GOIN' TO KANSAS CITY in his unique slurry style. Tenor sax man Fraser MacPherson is present and takes excellent solos on KANSAS CITY NIGHTS, DEXTER BLUES, and HOLLYWOOD JUMP. Other good soloists include Bob Brough (ts) on BLUE AND SENTIMENTAL, Ingrid Stitt (as) on KANSAS CITY NIGHTS, and Arnie Chycoski (tp) on WRAP YOUR TROUBLES IN DREAMS, and it's nice to see so many other different players get a chance to solo, too. It's a pleasant hour of big band jazz, though like just about all big band albums today it sounds as if it was recorded through a blanket. Worth checking out.
