Overture
Def Leppard formed in Sheffield in 1977 and quickly became one of the leading bands of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement. On Through The Night laid the groundwork for their later multi-platinum releases including Pyromania and Hysteria. This debut remains a favourite among collectors for its heavier, more traditional metal sound and historic importance in British rock.
Record label
Vertigo was one of the most influential UK rock labels of the 1970s and 1980s, home to major progressive and hard rock acts. By 1980, Vertigo had become synonymous with quality heavy rock releases, and early UK pressings like this are highly regarded for their sound quality and collectability.
