Def Leppard

In the live recording from September 9, 2009, at the Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, Def Leppard was well into the resurgence of their career following a period of relative quiet. By this point, the band had released their highly-acclaimed album "Songs from the Sparkle Lounge" in 2008, which marked their first studio release in nearly six years. This live performance prominently featured tracks from their classic album "Hysteria," which had originally launched them into superstardom back in the late '80s. It's fascinating how, over two decades later, the band was still revitalizing their signature sound, bringing nostalgia to long-time fans while capturing the attention of newer listeners. Their ability to blend hard rock with catchy melodies can be heard throughout this concert, showcasing why Def Leppard remains a beloved staple in the rock genre.
