      I hate how people say oh they can’t do metal anymore. Number 1 Vivian played with Dio which is very very much metal. Number 2 Phil has been on the pyromania album as well which was still mutt Lange ac dc style songs. Number 3 they play the damn songs here just fine. Honestly it sounds better because they use more distortion than they did with Pete and Steve.

  • @jmyers95655

    Pyromania & Hysteria are their most well-known albums, but High & Dry is the diamond in the rough, IMO. Great album, no filler.

    This is one of Def Leppard's most banger songs in their entire discography, and not to mention that they sound really great with it live even after all these years. Despite this, the crowd are just standing around like statues or wandering around like lost children awkwardly looking for their parents... What is wrong with these clowns? It may not be the best sing-along like Pour Some Sugar On Me, but how can you not just rock out to this one?

  • @scottmasson3039
    @scottmasson3039 Před 9 lety +72

    As far as "live sound" is concerned, very few bands from their era sound half this good anymore. Most bands lowered all the keys, slowed the tempos, or their voices are completely shot. I saw Def Leppard live recently, and they sound just as good as they did back in the 80s, if not tighter. Joe Elliot is doing a great job with hitting those high notes as hard as he can, considering his age. Great band. Totally underrated.

    • @scottmasson3039
      @scottmasson3039 Před 9 lety +6

      And the rest of the band sing great harmonies. If they use a few backing tracks to flesh things out, I don't think there are many going on. It's pretty spare. I think they're doing a great job keeping it pretty authentic in this era, where most bands are just playing along to their fucking studio recordings.

    • @LincLux

    i just saw 3 days ago an interview where Joe Elliot said they "Intentionally" looked and sounded like this. They were acting as an opening band for themselves. He said he looked and acted different on purpose. They intentionally made the stage smaller and dropped all of the Leppard lights and flash. Just having what an opening band would have. And they played all OLD songs only. These people in the crowd are very lucky, as they got to see something VERY VERY RARE. THE CROWD IS DEAD!!! WTF!!! Dont you people even realize how RARE this is?????

    I personally believe there is NO BETTER tandem of lead guitar players in ANY BAND. Sure Joe Perry, Eddie Van Halen, Angus Young, Keith Richards and the list goes on and on and on of GREAT lead guitar player. but my argument is Vivian and Phil are the best combo leads. They both play lead. If you did not watch them you would not know which one is playing Lead. I just watched them last week and they STILL ROCK HARD!!!! Phil Colleen is still one of my favorite players. Vivian looks a lot different with short hair now but so glad he is healthy with his cancer. Thank god he is too young to lose.

Tipton/Downing, Murray/Smith/Jers (take your pick of 2 from those three), Robertson/Gorham, Aldrich/Beach, Powell/Wisefield, Friedman/Becker to name a couple are all better duo's and, having seen them in 79/80/81/82, the original Willis/Clarke line up from Leppard wiped the floor with the present duo.

    What an amazing live performance. Def Leppard was the first band I became a fan of, back in 1987 when I was 11. "Hysteria" was the gateway, but I soon learned that their older albums were solid gold. "High 'n' Dry", their 2nd album (which this song is from) is an underrated album. I've always liked this song, and hearing this live performance makes me LOVE it even more. I love the sound of electric guitars, and in this song the electric guitars tickle mye ears particularly well. It gives me a really good EARGASM. Thank you, Dead Flat Bird. ;)

    I was very big into Def Leppard including their "Pyromania" phase. Remember reading the Metal Hammer Magazine (which had hit the market here in germany in early 1984) that there had been this terrible car crash and the drummer lost his arm. I was shocked in a way.....afterwards Leppard disappeared from my metal horizon. Years later they suddenly returned and i am sure that i was among ten thousands of their strong followers that the return with their polished radio rock was .... just shocking! But what i want to say is that "Mirror, Mirror" and the "High'n'Dry" album in whole was and is (now that we have 2023) are iconic to me. Have heard both of them a thousand times - and will never stop. Together with "On through the Night" and "Pyromania" this will always be Leppard for me! Forget the rest! Greetings from germany.
    By the way: please "Ded Flatbird"....come to germany and give all the strong Leppard followers an impression of how great you are! Just join the "Blues Garage" near-by in Isernhagen. For example!

    Great to see this. I have to admit I was one of the UK fans that felt "betrayed" by the Pyromania album. I'd loved DL's first two albums, but in January 1983 I was getting ready for school and listening to the radio. The DJ announced "the new one from Def Leppard" and the Photograph riff started. I hated it! By 1987 I had recovered enough to like some songs from Hysteria, but I'm one of those Def Leppard NWOBHM guys. On Through the Night and High'nDry were great. Everything after that, not so good.

    Maybe not on this go, but the newer fans will go.... hey, that was a great tune! and start digging into their old catalog. It's a song that provokes a little more thought than their standard hits. Joe is doing right by his voice and making tunes sound good without blowing his voice out like in the past.

    Still sounding great! Joe's voice sounds a little different but still good! But hey, that's what comes from singing all the time for decades like he has.
