Love at First Sting

Love at First Sting is the ninth studio album by German rock band Scorpions.

The album contains "Rock You Like a Hurricane", "Still Loving You", and "Big City Nights", three of the band's most famous songs.

Initial sessions took place in Stockholm's Polar Studios in the Summer of 1983 with ex-Rainbow members Jimmy Bain on bass and Bobby Rondinelli on drums, but nothing made it to the final album.

It became the group's most successful album in the US, where it peaked at number 6 on the Billboard 200 chart in 1984,[11] and went double-platinum by the end of the year, reaching triple-platinum status in 1995.

Despite the record company having shown the original cover art to retailers without any concerns, a complaint by Walmart in the US after the album was released resulted in PolyGram Records issuing a "clean" cover for use in several department store chains.
