Def Leppard - Best Of The Videos (2004)(DVD)

Def Leppard (искаженноё англ. Deaf Leopard — глухой леопард) — британская рок-группа из Шеффилда, Йоркшир, Англия; образована в 1977 году. Их стилевая манера с годами претерпела ряд изменений, двигаясь от хард-рока к поп-року.

Def Leppard дебютировали как NWOBHM-группа с альбомом On through the Night в 1980 году. Пик популярности этой группы пришёлся на 1984-89 годы, когда вышли их платиновые альбомы «Pyromania» и «Hysteria». Синглы с диска «Hysteria» оказались наиболее успешными за всю их карьеру: «Love Bites» (1-е место в США), «Pour Some Sugar On Me» (2-е место в США), «Armageddon It» (3-е место в США). В 1995 году были занесены в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса как единственные исполнители, выступившие на трёх континентах в течение одних суток.
История на wikipedia


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Def Leppard are a hard rock and heavy metal band from Sheffield, England, which formed in 1977 as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement. Since 1992, the band have consisted of Joe Elliott (vocals), Phil Collen (guitar), Vivian Campbell (guitar), Rick Savage (bass guitar), and Rick Allen (drums).

The band's strongest commercial success came in the early 1980s to the early 1990s. Their 1981 album High 'n' Dry was produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, who helped them begin to define their style, and the album's stand out track "Bringin' On the Heartbreak" became one of the first metal videos played on MTV in 1982. The bands next studio album Pyromania in 1983, with the lead single "Photograph", turned Def Leppard into a household name. In 2004, the album ranked number 384 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
