Def Leppard Live in Jones Beach - Full Concert Performance

Venue: Jones Beach Theater Location: Wantagh, New York, United States Date: July 17, 1996

In July 1996, Def Leppard took the stage at the iconic Jones Beach Theater, delivering an electrifying performance that showcased their resilience and enduring popularity. By this time, they had just released their album 'Slang' in 1996, a significant departure from their earlier sound, embracing a more modern rock style infused with alternative elements. This era marked a notable evolution in their music, as they adapted to changing trends while still holding onto the anthemic choruses that defined their earlier hits. Fun fact: 'Slang' was their first album since the late '80s not to feature guitarist Steve Clark, who passed away in 1991. The band's ability to reinvent themselves while captivating audiences illustrates their remarkable journey in the rock scene, making this live concert a pivotal and exciting moment in their career.
