Description

The Scorpions celebrate 30 years of "Wind of Change," the anthem that became a musical representation of freedom and change worldwide, by releasing the retail version of the box set "Wind of Change: The Iconic Song." The box set “Wind of Change: The Iconic Song” is dedicated exclusively to the power ballad written by Klaus Meine, which became the soundtrack for the end of the Cold War. Inspired by the experience of playing at the Moscow Music Peace Festival in 1989, "Wind of Change" embodies the feelings of hope, optimism, and the prospect of a better future. “When we came on stage in the Lenin Stadium and started the show with "Blackout," all the Red Army soldiers, who function as security, threw their hats and jackets in the air, turned to us, and became part of the crowd. The world was changing right in front of our eyes...It was unbelievable!” - Klaus Meine, 2020 In 84 pages Dr. Edgar Klüsener, former Editor-in-Chief of Metal Hammer and close confidant of the band, dives deep into the story behind the song. Having interviewed Klaus Meine exclusively for this purpose in June 2020, he writes about the genesis and impact of the song, which has become a sign of hope and freedom to people around the world. Additionally, the book contains several pages of photographs from the band’s photographer Didi Zill and from Klaus Meine’s private archive, as well as the handwritten lyrics for "Wind of Change" by Klaus Meine. In addition to the book the box set includes a vocal and piano arrangement of “Wind of Change” as well as a CD and 12” LP with 5 versions of the song: the original “Crazy World”-album version, the Berlin Philharmonic version, the Russian and Spanish versions, and an unreleased demo version by Klaus Meine. Includes 84-page hardcover book with rare and previously unseen photographs, the vocal and piano arrangement, & 5 versions of the iconic song, incl. the first demo on CD and 12” LP.
