It's early morning, the sun comes out. Last night was shaking and pretty loud. My cat is purring, it scratches my skin. So what is wrong with another sin?

60 Years! Think about how long that number is. That is how long Scorpions have been a band and a band that is still going strong. Quite impressive! To celebrate that length of services, they have released a new greatest hits compilation that goes all the back to the first sting and one of the most recent stings. Musically, the band has released material since 1972 which isn't quite 60 years, but the essence of the band goes back to 1965 when it was started by Rudolf Schenker.

Back in November 2010, Scorpions were on their first farewell tour...and as we know now, it wasn't their last farewell tour. To help capitalize on that tour, Mercury released a compilation for the band called 'Icon'. The 'Icon' compilations have been around a while and numerous bands have these such as Kiss, Poison and so many more. The single disc version, what we have here, is simply a 12 track compilation that covers the biggest hits of their career.
