Def Leppard

In August 2003, Def Leppard was riding high on the success of their album 'X', which had been released just a year prior in 2002. This live recording of 'Make Love Like a Man' captures the band during their X Tour and is a testament to their enduring rock appeal, showcasing the energy that fans have come to love. Interestingly, 'X' marked a significant evolution in their sound, with a more modern pop-rock flair compared to their earlier hard rock roots. The tour itself was a celebration of old and new, blending classic hits with fresh tracks, and it demonstrated the band's ability to draw a diverse crowd. The performance recorded in Portland shows that, even after decades in the business, Def Leppard continued to evolve while delivering electrifying live shows that resonate with audiences old and new.
