Německý metalový soubor založený v Solingenu v r. 1971, přirovnáván m.j. k Judas Priest. Rozpoznávacím znakem je hlas Udo Dirkschneidera, zpívajícího výhradně anglicky.
První stabilnější sestava je až z r. 1974. Prvním úspěchem bylo vystoupení...
I hear a rock'n'roll guitar,
screamin' wild on the radio
Well, I know what I like, know and it's right
Gotta take me through the night
The sound is comin' out,
it's breakin' down the doors
Like an earthquake
Explodin' your brains,
Do it again, power is a natural right
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
right on rockin' man
You gotta hear it for a while,
it bowls you ever like dreamin'
Oh, hell what a night,
keep a rockin' on tight
Hey, boy can't you see the light
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
make me rockin' mad
Burning, burning
burning just like fire
Burning, burning
burning just like fire
Burning, burning
burning just like fire
Burning, burning
burning just like fire
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
make me rockin' mad
