Def Leppard released their classic Let's Get Rocked single 28 years ago on this day in 1992 in the UK.

The first single to be released from the 'Adrenalize' album and their first UK release since 'Rocket' in January 1989.

It was released on 16th March 1992 reaching Number 2 and spending seven weeks on the UK chart. Three inside the Top 10 and was their biggest hit to date in their homeland. Narrowly missing out on the Number 1 spot by just 146 copies.

The song was the first release after the death of guitarist Steve Clark in January 1991.

It was also the only single to be released as a four piece before the band announced their new guitar player Vivian Campbell.

It was first performed by the band as a four piece on BBC TV show Top Of The Pops in late March (the music was playback with Joe singing live). The first 'live' performance was 15th April 1992 in Dublin, Ireland during Vivian's first show with the band.
