The Scorpions' second studio album, Fly to the Rainbow, was released on 01 November 1974 and is the first album produced by

the members of the band themselves. The album was produced shortly after their Lonesome Crow tour, after which Michael

Schenker left the band and was replaced by Uli Jon Roth. Stylistically, Fly to the Rainbow deviated strongly from their debut album

Lonesome Crow and moved in a more experimental direction, which nevertheless already showed strong hard rock influences at

that time and already foreshadowed where the band would later go. Besides lead singer Klaus Meine, the album also features the

voices of Rudolf Schenker ("They Need a Million") and Uli Jon Roth ("Drifting Sun"). To date, the album has sold more than a million

copies worldwide
