@@vinaymulukutla358 Pyromania was released. so no. Def Leppard sound died after Steve. Pete is super overrated when Steve wrote almost the majority 80 or 90 % of the riffs in the band and even soloing.
@@madden7732 I did say that they lost it all after Steve died. Oh…and I’m sorry but I will take Pete Willis-era Leppard over anything that came after it. Raw metal sound, street tough attitude instead of all that pretty boy stuff and super polished production. It’s fine that you disagree with me but that’s my take on it.
Man the 80s just fricken rocked. Kids have no clue what a great time we had . As I get older 56. I rock out every day. It gives me an absolute rush. Rock on .!!!!!!!
Agreed! And you can't explain it to them either, you just had to be there. Live music seven nights a week... No smartphone or social media, no staying home to watch other people have a good time on t.v., people lived their own lives. The 80s made the 60s look like the 50s.
Well, don't know if you all will see this; but, I have all of you beat, lol!!! Not your normal 65 year old.....still rockin'!!! Catch up with me if you can, lol!!! Have a great one.....
Yea i totally agree !! The 80s were the best times for music! I seen def leppard in concert in 1983 as a young teen and wow they were a great band then and still are .The 80s were a time where there was no political correctness, sjw 💩,no smart phones,no blm,antifa 💩 and everything wasnt racist. Kids today have no clue what they missed out on
Gottisanidiot... he always was. Fired because he drank too much? Lol, what a load BS. More like he was fired because he didn’t want to sell out like the rest of them did.
@@panzerlieb HE WAS FIRED BECAUSE HE WAS A VERY MEAN drunk. They all Drank A LOT but the difference is they werent wanting to fight everyone. If PETE would've been a cool guy when hammered he'd still be there. Even Pete admits he was mean.
Eddie The Head It's the truth. It's an overproduced piece of trash with a extremely dated synth drum sound and cheesy overlayered vocals. This band was one foot in the grave when they fired Pete Willis and Rick Allen's accident was the final nail in the coffin. You can't play electric drums with one arm in a rock band. That may be insensitive to say, but it's the truth.
Martijn Stuart then how were they still popular, and STILL perform to this DAY? Answer that. Rick was given a special drum set where his left foot would work like a left arm so when he pushed a pedal with his foot, it would do something the arm would've done
***** Trust me, I gave it a try. I listened to all of Nirvana's albums from start to finish back in 1993 when I was in high school. It sucked balls back then and it still sucks balls now. Def Leppard is still going strong today selling out arenas, but where is 90s grunge today? Dead in an urn and buried in the ground where it belongs. 70s & 80s rock n roll lasted much longer because it had the talent, the skill, the melody, and the charisma, which the 90s all lacked.
Steve Perry Go watch Billboard's video titled "Def Leppard's Joe Elliott slams 90s music". Joe Elliott hits the nail on the head in that video when he talks about 90's bands compared to 70's and 80's bands.
They had 3 great albums. High n Dry, Pyromania and Hysteria. It's been 35 years and counting since they've approached any of the those 3. Steve Clark (RIP) and Mutt Lange out of the picture would be the reason for the drought. Tool would eat Leppard for lunch. And not have to really kick it into a high gear to do it.
@@80steen44 Everything they did after High N Dry is over produced. They already had those songs ready to go when they fired Tom Allom and brought in Mutt. Luckily, he didn't ruin them like he did everything else.
The 2 original guitar players , Pete Willis with black hair and Steve Clark blonde hair , this album was 1982 I think , Willis was gone after this album and Steve died in 1991 , great album , very raw , great sound !

That’s what I thought too. They were amazing. The best music before that. I still love them. I just won’t listen to their music ( maybe the late 80- early 90’s???) idk the yr they changed but I didn’t like it. I just remember. I absolutely couldn’t get enough of them. Then they changed their music & it sucked. lol. wtf
Still have my 1981 Def Leppard High and Dry tour t shirt . Bought it in Springfield, Illinois . Def Leppard opening for Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads. I gave away my Blizzard of Ozz tour guide to a friend. I play guitar and Let it Go is one of my favorite riffs and song.
I totally agree, noticing that his voice changed as he got older. I don’t think he was able to screech as loud either but still sounded good and he’s so cute.
So for my 13th birthday 1983 my parents got me tickets to see Def Leppard and krokus pyromania tour at Joe Louis arena in Detroit Michigan phenomenal first concert LOL but soon after I started listening to Metallica Venom Motorhead Slayer got into the thrash seen...

Although they've maintained success over the years, this era was when they were at their best.
@@SWIFTY5150 I AGREE WITH YOU ON THAT.
Absolutely 🤟
It was all downhill from here. I actually like the debut better, so, to me, the decline started the year before.
Hysteria is a capital album, but it has all been a slide since said album.
EXACTLY
This song and hit and run two of def leppards best
Pete Willis totally shreds on this album! The band was never the same after his departure!
Agreed
Saw them with and without Willis,high an dry with Willis!!
We didn't get the chance to his solo's on Pyromania. To think that album would of sounded heavier.
Boom! ..indeed...
Didn’t help when the drummer lost his arm by that drunk driver. Had to use electronic drums so he could play again.
This is when Def Leopard was playing real rock and roll music.
True, but if you were a real fan, you would know how to spell the band name
@@geraldhartley this whole alblum rocked- then they got candy coated for radio
Looks like an autocorrect, “Leopard” instead of Leppard. I learned recently they spelled it “Leppard” so they wouldn’t sound like a punk band.

Pete Willis. The most underrated rhythm player. He wrote and recorded most of Pyromania before getting the boot....
Pete was the orchestrator of his own demise from the band...he admitted it himself!
The tone of Steve’s guitar during that solo is awesome!!
So many Def Leppard songs from the Pete Willis-era had killer rhythm guitar riffs. After Pyromania, that pretty much ended.

They were amazing. The best music before that. I still love them. I just won’t listen to their music ( maybe the late 80- early 90’s???) idk the yr they changed but I didn’t like it.
I just remember. I absolutely couldn’t get enough of them. Then they changed their music & it sucked. lol.
wtf
Favorite DEF LEPPARD song.
Riffs...riffs everywhere. :)
yeah...the good old times
Man this kicks ass
The best hard rock album in history...
My favourite era of this band. Young and hungry
High N Dry best DL album.
Still have my 1981 Def Leppard High and Dry tour t shirt . Bought it in Springfield, Illinois . Def Leppard opening for Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads. I gave away my Blizzard of Ozz tour guide to a friend. I play guitar and Let it Go is one of my favorite riffs and song.
Hysteria was great but the early albums were no doubt the best!

😊😅
THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE SONG!
Some of the very best Hard Rock of all! Willis riffs, great vocals, UFO vibes, …
I will love this music forever!
Willis was in my opinion the better guitarist wish that would have carried on.
RIP Steve Clark a true legend. He wrote a lot of their songs.
69 here, Def Leppard, Rolling Stones, The Who, Aerosmith. What a wonderful time to be alive.
Back when Def was a Rock/Metal band. The good ol days...
When Dek Leppard was the shit ✌️🥳💞💯😎😘
Listen to that, pure rock
The greatest of all Def Leppard songs by miles.
Yeah, it's Def Leppard's masterpiece.
Facts
I love Joe's vocals when he was young. The grit, the unique tone
Back up vocals, were just as strong. 👍💯💯💯💯Such a great sound!
Agreed, he was in a class by himself.
I totally agree, noticing that his voice changed as he got older. I don’t think he was able to screech as loud either but still sounded good and he’s so cute.
I first heard ya all about 40 years ago. There was no better time than the 80s. Keep on rockin.
One of the greatest, most underrated rock albums of all time 🤟🏻
RIGHT!!
Def Leppard, Scorpions, AC DC and Van Halen all you needed during the 80s
You nailed it...Here is my order VH, AC/DC,Scorpions, Def Leppard. ...
Also 5. A lil bit of nose candy
Gotta have dokken and night ranger too.
I’m good with that except in the 80’s I also needed Iron Maiden and Motley Crue.
Well yes, but i needed too Metallica, Judas Priest, Motley Crue, Wasp, Accept, Loudness, Ratt, Black Sabbath, and Iron Maiden, and many others.

Def Leppard is in my top 5 bands that I still crank up today.
