Out of print in the U.S.! Originally released in 1990, Crazy World found the German Heavy Metal band at a crossroad in their career: do they continue with their polished, melodic Metal sound that had helped them shift millions of units in the '80s or do they record a hard rockin' album that is truer to their own vision? Thankfully, the band chose the latter and steered clear of the slick sound of their late '80s albums while still sounding melodic and maintaining their unique sound. In fact, they even scored their biggest hit in years with 'Wind of Change', a ballad that still remains one of their most popular songs. Apart from a few soft moments, Crazy World is a rockin' platter that will please those in search of quality songwriting and Hard Rock heaviness. Mercury. Review: Scorpions! On vinyl! Crazy World! - Great vinyl rock album! In the bands height of their hay-day in the U.S. With hits like (track 1) Tease Me, Please Me! more hits like 2nd most popular MTV video in 1990, side 1 had the very cool, rock solid, iconic classic rock song (track 4) Wind of Change! 5 great songs! Side 2, just as strong! Lust or Love, Kicks After Six, or the song Hit Between the Eyes (track 3) was in the movie Freejack! Money and Fame, Crazy World, and hit song Send Me Angel. If don't own it, you should! Either on Vinyl or CD. Review: Just what I was looking for. - Perfect, thank you.

It is indeed a Crazy World!
I want to start off by saying that this is my favorite Scorpions album, so this review may be a little biased. "Crazy World" was released in 1990, and followed many great Scorps' classics, such as "Lovedrive," "Virgin Killer," "Blackout," and "Love at First Sting." It also followed what many fans consider their 'sell-out' album, "Savage Amusement," and a greatest hits package, "Rockers & Ballads (Best of)." This album marked a return to what we expect when we purchase a Scorpions disc...heavy riffs, sexual innuendo-ed lyrics, and of course excessive rock / metal cheese. Klaus Meine and Rudolf Schenker are akin to Angus and Malcolm Young of AC/DC in terms of finding a successful formula and making it work repeatedly. I give it four stars out of five when compared to other hard rock discs of the era. It has it all in terms of what the boys are capable of. There are slow burning rockers like "Money and Fame," power ballads "Wind of Change" and "Send Me an Angel," and then the blitzkrieg wailers like "Tease Me, Please Me" and "Kicks After Six." I like this disc a lot, and highly recommend it to both novice Scorpions fans and the hard-core ones that are on their second or third copy of "Blackout." Enjoy!

A Gem Of An Album At The End Of An Era, Holds Up Well Today
This is one of the great albums that came out around 1990. Metal started to decline in popularity and flare, as well, but this album delivers as well as any, along with Maiden's 1990 release, 'No Prayer For The Dying'. There's 2 ballads on Crazy World, which, unless you were in hibernation for the decade of the 1990's and beyond, are essential vinyl masterpieces. The other 9 songs on this release flat out rock! This is one of the greats and has rebounded nicely, since Metal's big comeback over the last 15 years or so!

Scorpions knock it out of the park with this one
"Tease Me, Please Me" gets things going, I imagine getting into a McLaren P1 and hitting the pedal would be a good analogy. The energy never wavers; they run the gamut from the title song to the beautifully rendered "Winds Of Change", which showcase their versatility. I know this is to be a review of the cd, but I want to say something about Scorpions live and how it relates to their recordings. They are my favorite group for a variety of reasons: Powerful, melodious, energetic, and dynamic. The interplay between lead singer Klaus Meine and guitarists Rudolf Schenker and Matthias Jabs is wonderful. Running around the stage like a bunch of twentysomethings is greatly entertaining. The dynamism and energy of a live Scorpions performance is faithfully rendered in "Crazy World". Crank your home system up, sit in the sweet spot and enjoy! Well worth the ride!
