Def Leppard was formed in 1976, releasing their debut album "On Through the Night"  in 1980 and the second one "High 'n' Dry" in 1981. But they really became big with Pyromania (1983) and "Hysteria" (1987). The band's vocalist Joe Elliott was asked in an interview with Los Angeles Times which of those two albums is the best, but he couldn't really pick one. Joe Elliott answered which one is better: "Pyromania" or "Hysteria" "Jesus, man, come on. Obviously, the breakthrough was 'Pyromania' — the memories from that tour of being this band that got out of a bus and walked into a hotel to being this band that got off the bus and we couldn’t even get into the hotel because there were too many kids blocking the way. But by 1987, when it’s the second time, it’s the second time, you know what I mean? So what you had was the first and then the bigger. Which of them is better? I just blend them together and go, The ’80s were great," Joe Elliott said. Released in 1983, Pyromania was the first Def Leppard album with guitarist Phil Collen. It had classic tracks like: "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)", "Photograph", "Too Late for Love", "Foolin'" and "Rock of Ages". "Hysteria" was the first album following the tragic accident the drummer Rick Allen suffered. It had incredible songs like the title-track, "Women", "Rocket", "Animal", "Love Bites", "Pour Some Sugar on Me", "Armageddon It" and "Gods of War". Leppard is one of the best-selling bands of all time with an estimated amount of more than 100 million records sold worldwide. So they were and continue to be a huge inspired for countless artists. Although they tragically lost the guitarist Steve Clark back in 1991, the band continued, recruiting the ex-Dio guitarist Vivian Campbell as his replacement. Since then the line-up continues the same with Elliott, Rick Allen, Rick Savage and Phil Collen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4dHr8evt6kThe post Joe Elliott answered which one is better: “Pyromania” or “Hysteria” appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.

Taylor Swift is the most successful musician in the world right now but Def Leppard had the chance to meet her and play with her back in 2008 at CMT Crossroads. In an interview with Los Angeles Times, the band's vocalist was asked about that experience and he even compared her with names like The Beatles and Rolling Stones. Joe Elliott compares Taylor Swift with Beatles and Stones "I don't think anybody could. You look at it now, and it kind of makes sense. But if you think back to 2008, there was no such thing as what she's accomplished." "I know anybody that was there when The Beatles and The Stones came over will go, 'Wait a minute…' But for people born this century or in the '90s, this is a phenomenon that's never been seen before — technically bigger than The Beatles and The Stones combined, at least commercially." "It's insanity, the amount of tickets she sells. But I always knew she'd be big. And for all the hardships she's gone though — the people who've tried to trip her up over the years at certain parts of her career — she's just dusted herself down. She's a fantastic role model for a generation of kids," Joe Elliott said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgPO4dnt3xE&pp=ygUYZGVmIGxlcHBhcmQgdGF5bG9yIHN3aWZ0 The Rolling Stones already had once the highest-grossing tour of all time (“A Bigger Bang Tour” – 2005 to 2007). Since then many other artists have had more profitable tours than that one and one of them is Taylor Swift. Nowadays, she has the most profitable tour of all time, which is called “The Eras Tour”. With 60 dates from 2023 to 2024, the tour made more than 1 billion and 39 million dollars. Until now she released 11 studio records, 5 EPs and four re-recorded albums of her discography. She is currently the solo artist with the most weeks at number one on the United States Billboard 200 chart. In 2023 she was the most streamed artist in Spotify, with 26.1 billion streams.

UTL COMMENT:- I was born in a WHITE AUSTRALIA. In the late 70's the foreigners to me were the 'wogs'----ie Italians and Greeks. I noticed the changes in the late 70's and 80's when I was a kid - saw all these Vietnamese coming in.....changing the face of Australia.....I didn't like it. Then I saw all these Chinese coming in.... And now Indians..... We Whites were >98% of Australia when I was a kid......what are we now----close to 65-70%? We are all fully 'vaxxinated' but most immigrants don't need to be...why? Hence most of us now cant have kids and if we do their DNA is compromised. Look up the definition of GENOCIDE and that is it in a nutshell - this has been an INTENTIONAL ATTACK ON WHITES.

‘… a world where the truth is nothing more than whatever the powerful say it!’ UTL COMMENT:- So, it's like the good old days when the shaman told the tribe the reason for the earthquake was because the Gods are hungry for our next born. It's still the very same cult. Not much changes. Oh, hang on....maybe. We have the wheel now....
