Do Ya Wanna Get Rocked?

You never know, when a band first hits the radio, whether the music or the band are going to be timeless. As big as the Beatles were in 1964, 1965, no one really thought about whether or not we'd still be playing their music 40, 50, 60 years on. And it's not just the Beatles. We're still listening to Led Zeppelin. And Queen. And Pink Floyd. And Def Leppard. It has been very nearly 50 years since the teenage quintet from Sheffield, England first walked into a studio and cut a track of their own music. There in Northern England in 1978, it was probably just as inconceivable to them that the world would ever know who they were, let alone remember them, here in 2025. Let alone that they'd still be recording great albums. Let alone that they'd still, in their late 60s, still be touring the world. And yet, more than 45 years on, here we are. This book offers up some reasons why - a review of the music that made the band so memorable across the decades, from their earliest effort into their MTV salad days, and finally to their pinnacle, the planet-dominating Hysteria. Culled from Rock Candy: Def Leppard, which offers the band's history as well as the music, this book is a journey through the band's best, from "Bringin' on the Heartbreak" to "Foolin'", from "Photograph" to "Rock of Ages", from "Animal" to "Pour Some Sugar on Me".
