[edit] Francis Bucholz

the statement that francis Bucholz (not sure about the spelling) was not the bass player during recordings is untrue. on the leaflet that comes along with the album, the band members say that they tried to use another bassist but unsuccessfuly. in the end the original bassist (francis bucholz) recorded the songs. that's what i think. –—…°≈±−×÷←→·§--87.203.172.60 15:44, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

At the time, Bobby Rondinelli and Jimmy Bain were strongly rumoured to have played drums and bass respectively, although it has been said by Scorpions that the parts were re-recorded by Rarebell and Bucholz. It was all to do with keeping the band wholly-German at that point. These rumours usually have some basis in fact - look at KISS' use of uncredited musicians - and on the Black Sabbath tour in 1994 I asked Bobby about his supposed involvement. He says he was there. Obviously I can't support this (no mobile-phones with recording facilities then!) but *I* know what he told me.
