As Eddie Trunk says in his introduction: “The book you are holding will take you on a journey through the last 60 years. Depending on where you jumped in on the band’s history this will really bring back some amazing memories. I have found the best way to enjoy this tome is to go through its pages while cranking your favourite Scorpions albums. No matter how old you are, or when you first saw or heard the band, there is something in this book that will bring a smile to your face and take you back to that period of time.
