There is more than one artist with this name:
1) The Scorpions were a 60s band from Manchester.
2) The Scorpions were an instrumental trio from London who recorded for Parlophone in 1961.
(Not to be confused with rock band Scorpions, who don't use "The" in their name. If you are here because of them, do last.fm and yourself a favor. Fix your artist tags.)
