Guest?

Anyway, this will hardly be a live album. What the band should do is release the In The Round - In Your Face concert on CD.

not sure WHY they'd do this....

the live material I've heard Joe's voice is shot.....


not a band that has aged gracefully imo....

Oh yippie another pile of crap from a band that is washed up.

If it were a live tape from 1983 freshly unearthed from the DL vaults, maybe I'd care. But now? Meh.

I keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel you!

These guys are still around?

They've gone back to their roots!



Yeah...no. At least they're trying something a little different. Decent song. Really think Joe's voice is shot, though.

HAHAHA! Yea I heard this earlier. like someone said just sounds like something left off of Sparkle Lounge. I'm interested to hear this live album though.

It's way better than anything from Sparkle Lounge. I think it's pretty damn good. It's going to be on their next studio album, so I'll hold off for that baby to come out.

It's about on par with most from Sparkle Lounge. Good tune, good album.

We must have heard 2 different albums. Sparkle Lounge made me cry and pee myself. This song makes me happy and erect.

I haven't heard an original Def Leppard song since Adrenalize, but that sounded pretty good to me. Decent enough.

Maybe you have a urinary tract infection. Don't blame Def Leppard.

The release date for this is June 7th for those that are interested.

WOW ! They put the two best songs from Hign N Dry on the live cd (total sarcasm) and nothin from the debut. Yep, that's really going bacl to their roots.

I must be the only person on this forum who liked Sparkle Lounge!!!! I thought that was a good album that had more in common with their glam covers album 'YEAH' then say 'Pyromania' or 'High n Dry'

I also like the new song, not their best song but glad to see they turned up the Marshalls.

I went back and forth on Sparkle Louonge a lot...loved it, hated it, loved it again...

I've settled on "has some good songs but not their best work"...

Wow! Serious Queen influence here. Like ridiculous Queen sound.



Really really dig this song. This is the one Sav wrote. I'd love to hear him do a solo album. He's written so few solo tracks for Leppard—"Love," "C'mon C'mon," and "Goodbye," probably the best ballad they've done since "Love Bites"—and they typically have a nice 70s kind of vibe (well, all but "Goodbye").

Anyway, here's the Collen-penned tune from Mirrorball:



Dig this one, too, though I think it's the worst of the three. This one probably sounds most like older Leppard, somewhere around the Hysteria era.

Kinda lame that they plan to put these tracks on their upcoming album, though.

Not bad. Highly produced of course, but I actually fight it more endearing than I expected simply because Joe's voice is now flawed. It seems more real, if that makes sense.

And I haven't seen them live but for that one time in 1989, but that opening to "Rock! Rock!" is the studio version. They do that live now? Tell me they're not trying to fool us here.

This comes out tomorrow right? Should be arriving tomorrow or Wednesday in the mail then.

I can't remember how it went dow when I saw them in '09. I'll let you know in about 2 weeks though.

Yeah, it comes out tomorrow. Apparently Walmart and Sam's Club only?

Yep.
