Scorpions preview From The First Sting 60th Anniversary collection

The Scorpions are streaming their 1999 track, “Mind Like A Tree”, as a preview to the band’s new 60th anniversary collection “From The First Sting.”

The track from the German group’s “Eye II Eye” record is featured in the forthcoming compilation due October 17 via BMG.

The band's only career-spanning collection is a journey through the group's timeless hits, from "Rock You Like a Hurricane" to "Wind of Change", showcasing Scorpions' evolution while honoring the spirit of their classic sound.

The package features two previously unreleased tracks – "This Is My Song" and "Still Loving You" – the latter of which features British violinist Vanessa Mae.

“From The First Sting” will be available on a deluxe 2LP & 2CD bookpack and 2CD format for European and Rest of the World fans, as well as 2LP vinyl and 1CD format for fans in the Americas.

The physical edition for fans in the Americas comes housed in a carefully crafted 2LP gatefold vinyl pressed on 180g and 1CD digisleeve, comprehensively illustrating the enduring influence of the pioneering masters of their genre.

Commercially, the Scorpions are one of the best-selling hard rock and heavy metal bands of all time - with over 120 million album sales to their name.
