Joe Elliott was a stud in the early and mid-80's, and the hardcore DL fans, the only fans that should matter to a group/artist, still enjoy the shows. But he should stop smoking and take his craft a bit more seriously.

Interesting, Dan. If the hardcore fans mattered they would have stuck to the Pyromania style and not ventured into the pop-rock arena.

I'm pretty sure that the hardcore fans (and the masses) liked Hysteria.

High 'n' Dry is my favorite album by Def Leppard. Pyromania started their cross over into pop and once Pete Willis was out of the band, they never seemed to return to their hard rock roots.

I do love High n' Dry too! It has a couple of my favorite Lep songs on it! I know it's rarer for women to like that album.Don wrote:S2M wrote:I don't equate units sold with whether something is a classic, or a talent thing. Def Leppard sold out on Hysteria.

Pyromania and Appetite for Destruction were both released in the summer of 1987 and it took both of them until the summer of 1988 to reach the top of the charts, something unheard of now as acts usually can't build up that kind of momentum so late after their initial releases anymore.

Though Bringin on the Heartbreak is my FAVORITE Lep song of all time, my other close second favorite on that album is Let it Go which I got to hear twice live a couple years agoS2M wrote:StevePerryHair wrote:I do love High n' Dry too!

There are more songs on that album besides Bringin' on the Heartbreak, Meanie!
Lady Strange is KILLER!

Typo on my part. Hysteria, released Aug 87 reached #1 on the Album chart last week of July and first week of August 88.

It came out July 31, 1987, right before Hysteria and hit #1 the middle August 1988, a few days before Sweet Child Of Mine was released as a single. It hit number one again for three weeks at the end of September and resurfaced for one more week at #1 in Feb 1989, a bit more than 18 months after it had originally been released.
