Good overview
King of the Nite Time World | the planet skaro | 05/05/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Lot's of Scorpions compilations to choose from... why did I buy this one? Well, I already have BEST MASTERS OF THE 70's HOT n SLOW (which is an Excellent overview of three of their best albums in the 70's) - combine this with the fact that this box set is focused on the 80's and 90's material. Potential disappointments for listeners: only one song from the outstanding TAKEN BY FORCE album (HEs a Woman...), Dont Stop at the Top from SAVAGE AMUSEMENT missing, lite treatment of CRAZY WORLD album (good from my POV as I didnt like that album), and concentration of post-FACE THE HEAT material on disk three (not their best). Verdict: Recommended."
