LP1/CD1 – On Through the Night:

Def Leppard’s debut album was released in 1980 and immediately put the rock world on notice that the band were destined for big things, with the album charting at no 15 in the U.K. and 51 in the U.S.. Produced by Tom Allom it featured many of the bands live favourites and some updated versions of early singles. The album achieved platinum status in 1989. The version included here is the rare Australian gatefold sleeve version.

LP2/CD2 – High and Dry:

Released in 1981, High and Dry was Def Leppard’s second album and the first produced by Robert ‘Mutt’ Lange. It reached 26 in the U.K. charts and 38 in the U.S.

LP4+5/CD4 – Hysteria:

The fourth studio album by Def Leppard was released in 1987, and is one of the band’s best-selling records – to date has sold over 25 million copies worldwide. Produced by Mutt Lange the album took over 3 years to make featuring 7 singles in all, and has been nicknamed the Heavy Metal Thriller!

Description

This first volume of the band’s complete recorded output comes in both limited-edition 180-gram heavyweight vinyl and CD box sets, each featuring Def Leppard’s first four studio albums — along with some choice bonus live and studio material — all spread across 8LPs and 7CDs, respectively.

The Volume One collection contains all of Def Leppard’s iconic 1980s recordings – On Through The Night, High ‘N’ Dry, Pyromania and Hysteria - with reproductions of the original packaging in both formats. Furthermore, this collection includes a replica 7-inch single and 3-inch CD of the band’s original independent EP, the self-titled The Def Leppard E.P.

The Volume One collection also houses bonus material including Live At The LA Forum 1983, originally released as a bonus disc in the deluxe CD version of Pyromania, making this the first-ever vinyl offering of the complete show. This 2LP version comes with a new sleeve and inner bags. The box set also includes Rarities Volume 1 which has been specially compiled by Joe Elliott, containing rare B-sides and recordings from Def Leppard’s early years, all in a newly commissioned sleeve.

Each album in the box set was mastered by longtime band producer/soundmaster Ronan McHugh and cut by Greg Moore. Housed in rigid boxes, the Volume One collection also contains a hardback book with rare photos by longstanding band confidant Ross Halfin and liner notes by Classic Rock’s Paul Elliott. Def Leppard bandmembers Joe Elliott, bassist Rick Savage, drummer Rick Allen, and guitarist Phil Collen have all also contributed their personal introductions to the collection.
