Scorpions/France 06.21.2025 Complete

SCORPIONS successfully completed the main leg of their 60th anniversary tour. Here's a superb recording of the scene. This work features the "June 21, 2025 Clisson performance." It's a thick audience recording from their appearance at France's leading metal festival, "HELLFEST." This "60th Anniversary Tour" has attracted a lot of attention, with a string of masterpieces recorded by the audience. It's also very popular in our shop. With the collection organized, let's take a bird's-eye view of the tour again.・March 15th: Vive Latino performance ・April 16th-24th: South America (4 shows) ・May 6th + 8th: Mexico (2 shows) *June 4th - July 26th: Europe #1 (18 shows) ←★Click here★ ・August 14th-23rd: Las Vegas (5 shows) ・September 6th-14th: Europe #2 (4 shows) ・October 15th + 21st: Middle East (2 shows) This is the schedule that has been announced to date. In fact, the number of shows for "Europe #2" has increased since the last report, and "Middle East" has been added. This is a rare development, with new shows being added even as the actual event draws near. Among them, the one that just ended was "Europe #1," which featured a string of masterpieces. Let's focus more on the dates and check their relative positions. Details for "Europe" ・June 4th: Appearance at Skive Festival *June 6th "SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL 2025" ・June 9th + 11th (2 shows) *June 16th "POLAND 2025 (Gdansk)" *June 18th "POLAND 2025 (Krakow)" *June 21st: Appearance at Hellfest ←★This album★ *June 24th "PARIS 2025" ・June 27th + 29th (2 shows) *July 5th: Performance in Hanover ←※Official (planned) ・July 10th - 26th (7 shows) ... and so on. The performance in their hometown of Hanover, which was held on the same day as Ozzy's "BACK TO THE BEGINNING", is scheduled to be released as the official album "COMING HOME TO HANNOVER", and this album comes four shows before that. This was also the show before the release of their acclaimed IEM album, "PARIS 2025: ORIGINAL IEM RECORDING." This vacuum-packed recording captures the venue, delivering 100% pure, premium audience sound. Though it's a recording of the audience without any IEMs or other additives, it's incredibly clear, with sharp definition and separation. Perhaps because it was an outdoor festival with zero echo, the direct, thick sound is as satisfying as an FM broadcast. Moreover, the stability is excellent. This is just a guess, but I suspect the microphones were probably recording toward the PA tower away from the stage. While the thick core is on and close, there's no confusion like there would be in the front seats. In fact, during tracks like "The Zoo" and "Coast to Coast," even the voices of nearby conversations are absorbed, but their strangely relaxed nature creates a different mood than a packed front row. Despite being close to a soundboard, you can concentrate on the performance without getting caught up in the commotion... In reality, you'll want to move forward, but the recordist's patience is what allows you to enjoy the thick feel of this work. This extra-thick direct sound is depicted in the special set of the 60th anniversary tour. While already familiar, this day was a bit shortened for festivals, so let's reorganize it. The album includes: Forbidden Tattoo (5 songs), Coming Home, Bad Boys Running Wild, Big City Nights, Still Loving You, Rock You Like A Hurricane; Crazy World (3 songs), Send Me An Angel, Wind Of Change, Tease Me Please Me; and others (7 songs + α): Gas In The Tank, Make It Real, The Zoo, Coast To Coast, Loving You Sunday Morning, Blackout; and a 70s medley: Top Of The Bill, Steamrock Fever, Speedy's Coming, and Catch Your Train. Compared to other performances, Matthias' guitar solos, "Delicate Dance" and "I'm Leaving You," are omitted. However, the interesting thing about music is that just because it's short doesn't mean it's bad. I'm not sure if it's because of the set, but the ensemble is stable and very well-made. In particular, 77-year-old Klaus Meine (one year older than Ozzy), has been experiencing increasingly volatile performances depending on the day, but this day was a hit. As mentioned above, this is the fifth performance in our collection, and it's a surefire contender. Boasting a direct feel comparable to an IEM album, this is a masterpiece of a pure live album with no counts or clicks. This is an exceptional new masterpiece, even among the popular 60th Anniversary Tour Collection. This is an extremely thick audience recording of the "HELLFEST performance on June 21, 2025." It's incredibly clear, with a clear outline and distinct separation. Perhaps because it was an outdoor festival with zero reverberation, the super-thick sound picked up directly from the output is as satisfying as an FM broadcast. Although "I'm Leaving You" is omitted from the festival set, perhaps because of this, Klaus Meine can also experience the successful 60th anniversary tour on site.
