By Debbie Holman

Def Leppard guitarist Steve Steamin' Clark passed away 27 years ago on this day in 1991 and a new photo of his grave site is available.

A new photo of his grave site in the Loxley area of Sheffield was taken earlier today by local fan Debbie.

View the photo below from Wisewood Cemetery.

Steve died on 8th January 1991 in London, England whilst on a six month leave of absence from the band due to ongoing alcohol issues.

His passing is being remembered once again by fans around the world 27 years on.

In December 2016 a rare 1988 audio interview with Steve was released which features him talking about the 'Hysteria' album and world tour.

Earlier today Rick Allen shared his finished Steve portrait which is part of his new 'Legends' series.
