Scorpions

With over 100 million records sold and 50 years on stage, the Scorpions are one of the most successful and long-lived bands in music history.

The band was originally founded in 1965 under the name "Nameless" because no suitable band name could be agreed upon. One year after the formation the band finally called itself Scorpions, according to Rudolf Schenker, because it was a name that could be understood both nationally and internationally.
