Influenced by the glam rock of Queen, Slade, and the Sweet, the quartet reveled in the style's high-energy elements, while trading the outlandish imagery for a no-frills, denim-clad look that made them even more accessible to the masses. With 1983's PYROMANIA and its delayed follow-up punch, 1987's HYSTERIA, Def Leppard became an international phenomenon, unleashing hit after hit, including the riff-heavy, shout-along singles \"Rock of Ages,\" \"Pour Some Sugar on Me,\" and \"Armageddon It.\"\n\u003cbr\u003eThis collection presents every song on the previously released VAULT: GREATEST HITS 1980-1995, along with an entire second disc of additional album tracks, including the AC\/DC-like \"High 'N' Dry (Saturday Night)\" and HYSTERIA's anthemic ode to \"Women.\" Throughout the decades, the group endured its share of upheavals and tragedies--drummer Rick Allen lost an arm in a 1985 accident and guitarist Steve Clark died in 1991--but they continued recording into the 21st century (see the 2002 track \"Now\"), revealing a determination that most of their peers lacked. For fans of '80s hard rock, this 35-track compilation is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2005-05-17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Def Leppard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44234817798167,"sku":"PKIQZV-02R3-30","price":22.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/3027\/9959\/files\/def-leppard-rock-of-ages-the-de_q7Mvp.jpg?v=1770050331","url":"https:\/\/staytunedrecordsfl.myshopify.com\/products\/def-leppard-rock-of-ages-the-de","provider":"Stay Tuned Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
