Drummer, pianist, lyricist, artist, and whatever else you can imagine is what makes up the life of legendary former Scorpions drummer, Herman Rarebell. Since leaving the Scorpions in 1996, Herman Zee German has been a busy so and so. Never one to sit still, Herman has returned in 2025 with a new release called What About Love as Herman Rarebell and Friends.
It was such an honor speaking with such a legendary, iconic artist and he couldn't have been more amazing. We talked about the new album and why he chose to cover his favorite '80s songs. We also talked about the Scorpions now legendary performances at the 1984 US Festival and the 1989 Moscow Music Peace Festival. It was just such a great conversation and I hope y'all enjoy this one.
