Scorpions - Lovedrive - 1979
CD rip

Great rock album with a dubious cover, duly edited!

You’d think. They’d never get away with it these days. Mind you, it’s seriously bad taste!:sunglasses:

Chris Isaak | Wicked Game | 1991
I’ve always enjoyed his voice with some great lyrics on his early albums. This one is pretty much a re-packaged of his Heart Shaped World album a couple of years earlier when his Wicked Game single took off.
