The compilation focuses on their work from the late 1960s and early 1970s, showcasing the band's formative years before they achieved international fame with their later albums. Scorpions were founded in Hanover in 1965 by guitarist Rudolf Schenker. The early line-up included lead singer Klaus Meine and Schenker's younger brother Michael Schenker on lead guitar. The band's sound during this time was heavily influenced by the hard rock and psychedelic rock movements of the time. The compilation includes tracks from their debut album “Lonesome Crow” (1972) and other early works.

While the early material did not achieve significant commercial success at the time of its original release, it is regarded by fans for its historical significance and as a document of the band's development by fans and collectors estimated. Critics often view these early recordings as an interesting look into the band's origins, showing the evolution of their sound and the burgeoning talent of the Schenker brothers and Klaus Meine. The material on The Original Scorpions offers a stark contrast to the band's later, more sophisticated hard rock and heavy metal albums such as Lovedrive (1979), Blackout (1982) and Love at First Sting (1984). ), which brought them international recognition.
