He also recorded the drum portions for the Scorpions' much heralded 1984 "Love at First Sting" album. According to an interview (see Joe Siegler's Black-Sabbath.com for the link to the article), Rudolph Shenker wanted Bobby to join the Scorpions full time, but since they were the first German act to make it big, management wanted to keep the band German. Bobby commented he was well paid for his work on that album.
