This is really really cool. Maybe the best Scorpions-live-recording ever. The performance of the band is so good and the recording-quality is fine too. Just listen to Jabs' guitar-play on that one and you'll never ask for Michael Schenker again.... He plays the tricky solos from the Uli-Roth-era so well - imho it sounds even better than on "Tokyo Tapes". And the Song "Life's Like A River" really goes under your skin in the live-version (they only played it on the Lovedrive-tour).
Thank you very much!

Just an FYI, there is no 'Fairgrounds Coliseum in Chicago. This show was an August 1979 gig from the B'Ginnings nightclub in Schaumberg, IL, western suburb of Chicago. B'Ginnings was a club owned by the drummer of the band 'Chicago' and would always attract up n coming acts.. I remember Heart, AC/DC, Journey playing there. I recorded this show from the original radio broadcast, 'We Can't Get Enough' was played after 'Steamrock Fever' and is missing from this recording, fantastic show though, complete raw energy!!!

Yes, I know. I once downloaded the complete show - including "I can't get enough".

Scorpions played twice in Chicago in 1979 and both shows were recorded - the one posted here and recorded on August 10th 1979 (FM broadcast) and another one that took place on November 18th 1979 (I've read that this is a good AUD-recording). See also here: http://www.dreamwater.com/music/owta...pions.htm#scor
But I can't find this 2nd show nowhere here in the forum (it's always the same show - no matter what the title says. I checked them all). Anyone who has this 2nd record and would upload it? That would be great as a I really like these concerts with Jabs played in 1979 - they're just awsome! Thanks in advance.
