One of the few LPs I bought, when it was almost new (Def Leppard were just about to release Hysteria, or just did). I bought an older AC/DC record (Scott era), regular price, sometime in the mid 80s.

I Most of my LPs I bought were used, or cuts/clips (sleeve intentionally altered/damaged and sold at a discount, so it could
not be returned for full price.

Saw them fall of 2024, and it was still great!!! So much fun, nostalgia, surprisingly, I still knew almost all the words. As did most of the audience over 45. Still love Hysteria.

I came up as a thrash metal guy, but still love the fuck outta this one. Absolute banger of an album.

I've just shared this album with my neighbours... Whether they liked it or not. (Probably not tbh).

Great album. It had been a while since I'd listened to it. Really enjoyed it.

Make a racial slur against folks in my home town, our locals place a curse on you and cost your drummer an arm.

From that same home town. I remember.

I love this album, but High and Dry is my definite favorite of theirs!

Saw them last year and they fucking rocked it. This band has toured almost nonstop since 1983. Mad respect for them, and I’m not f-f-f-foolin’!

I have that on vinyl as well. I wish I still had a record player. Ever notice that the drumming was the focus of that album? I think Rick Allen was the band before he lost his arm.

JohnGypsy@reddit

He still is. Man is amazing on his electronic kit even today. 👍

Won this album for WDVE in 8th grade! I was the 7th caller!

Went to Music+ in my youth to grab this record and the dude at the counter handed me Iron Maiden: Piece of Mind and said “trust me”. I wish I could that that dude today.

Glam rock trash. Although I must admit I do kinda like the song “autograph “ but that’s it.

First cassette I owned. A&B side the entire summer I was 14. Comin Under Fire still hits right going from one speaker to the other.

[-]

Vivid_Engineering669@reddit (OP)

Cassette, the struggle was real.

[-]

Dry-Menu140@reddit

Def an underrated song from that amazing album. This was actually the very first cassette I ever purchased.

[-]

blueblocker2000@reddit

I used to jam to Photograph and Rock Rock till you drop while playing Rad Racer on the Nes. those two tunes just fit the mood for some reason.

Comin' Under Fire and Diehard the Hunter are bad azz tunes.

FortheloveofSuki@reddit

This was the first record I ever bought. I LOVED Def Leppard. I saw them live 3 times in 1983.

[-]

hippiechick725@reddit

This is one of my all time favorites 😂

[-]

MaximumJones@reddit

What has nine arms and sucks?

Def Leppard. 😎

Seriously though, I LOVE this album. It is still in my rotation to this day.

[-]

My favourite joke, my most hated band... and for no good reason... they engage with their fans, are talented, and charitable (allowing a school for deaf kids to use their name for sports teams).. just something makes me sick hearing their music.

[-]

cassette1987@reddit

My fav band (in the 80s) was The Smiths but godDAMNit this was a great record. So good.

[-]

LucyBear318@reddit

‘I said, welcome to my showwww!!!!’

[-]

Bl8kStrr@reddit

I still listen to Def Leppard daily!!! Probably my favorite band if I look at songs played on Spotify. Def Leppard was great in concert then and still sound good now

[-]

amsurette@reddit

Saw these guys in concert when I was 19. Such a great show.

I bought their On Through The Night album when it came out, because of the Truck on the cover My dad drove big rigs, and he approved of it, until I played it - definitely not his type of music.

I listened to that record with a headset every night before bed for a long time , and can still remember the song order and almost every single lyric on it still to this day
