Def Leppard

In August 1981, Def Leppard performed live at Music Mountain in South Fallsburg, New York, during a pivotal moment in their career. This concert came just after the release of their second studio album, 'High 'n' Dry', which hit the shelves in July of that year. The album helped to solidify their sound and showcased their shift towards a more polished production while enhancing their hard rock vibe. An interesting tidbit is that 'High 'n' Dry' included the hit single 'Bringin' on the Heartbreak', which not only gained significant airplay but also became a staple in their live shows. By 1981, the band was beginning to build a dedicated fanbase, and this performance would have certainly contributed to their soaring popularity, setting the stage for their groundbreaking future.
