Def Leppard released the album 'Hysteria' 25 years ago in August 1987 and an article on the story behind this classic record has been added to the site.

In February 2000 Classic Rock featured the album in their Classic Vinyl series with a great article telling the story of how the album was made.

Part one of that article has been added to the 'Hysteria' album section in honour of the 25th anniversary. Plus a few 1987-era photos. Part two featuring stories about Rick Allen, Mutt Lange and various albums facts will be added tomorrow.

Def Leppard Hysteria The Story Behind The Album - Article Quote

"If money was the motive we'd be churning out albums every three months, not spending nearly three years and two million quid recording one. That's how much we cared. Off the back of 'Pyromania' we could've put out 45 minutes of geese farts and it would have sold." - Joe Elliott, 1989.
