''Acoustica'' is an unplugged album by the German hard rock band Scorpions. It was released in 2001 on East West Records. ==Background== Acoustica was recorded during three concerts held in February 2001 at the Convento do Beato in Lisbon, Portugal.〔(Acoustica Tour 2001 @ www.the-scorpions.com )〕 It was a most unusual set for the band, as Klaus Meine comments on the DVD. The group was supported by female backing vocalists, a percussionist, an extra guitarist, and Christian Kolonovits on keyboards. Kolonovits also collaborated on rearranging the songs for the acoustic set. He had previously worked with the band as a conductor and arranger on the ''Moment of Glory'' album. The Scorpions performed four new songs: "Life Is Too Short", "Back to You", "I Wanted to Cry" and "When Love Kills Love", the last of which was released as a single.〔(When Love Kills Love single @ www.the-scorpions.com )〕 All the new songs were featured on the VHS, while "Back to You" and five others were omitted from the CD. ''Acoustica'' also contains cover versions of songs such as The Cars' "Drive", Kansas' "Dust in the Wind", and the Queen hit "Love of My Life". In 2003, an official 'Platinum Edition' was released by Warner Music Thailand, which coupled the original CD with a VCD. The VCD features behind-the-scenes and rehearsal footage as well as a band interview, conducted in English by a Thai television crew. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Acoustica (Scorpions album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
