Tokyo Tapes is the first live album by German rock band Scorpions and their last release by RCA Records.

It was also the final release to feature Uli Jon Roth, who left after the 27 April taping session.

These shows were guitarist Uli Jon Roth's last performances with the band, who had announced his departure after the release in December 1977 of the studio album Taken by Force.

The live album was originally released on 15 August 1978[1][2] in Japan only, with a cover artwork of an embossed platinum scorpion set on a rose, as opposed to a live shot of the band when it was eventually released in Europe in December 1978.

During these two shows (which share the same setlist), the songs "Hell-Cat", "Catch Your Train" and the Japanese national anthem "Kimi ga yo" were also performed but were not included in the official album.
