ok, not something I'd find myself listening to more than once, but not horrible
DEF LEPPARD - Personal Jesus
released 2020

Didn't realize that Steve Clark died 1991 mixture of alcohol and prescription drugs ( Clark contributed to over 90% of the music up to Hysteria)
but that would have been a time frame where I could have cared less what the boys in DL were doing

Reading Michaelangelo Matos' "Can't Slow Down" right now and just came across this:

Def Leppard [is] a Sheffield quintet so populist the made Quiet Riot sound like Pere Ubu.

love the tag line on the GQ article
Sweden’s new punk-rock hell-raisers have made their name skewering toxic masculinity, die-hard sports fans, right-wing fanatics—and themselves.

Personally think that it's high time that die-hard sports fans are skewered!

The video for Sports is pretty great though. Singer gets nailed by a tennis ball during a match.

Kills me the original Express didn’t include either Holiday on the moon (in the running for greatest b side ever?) or Ball of confusion

Thanks by the way...just got a surprise record in the mail

Good thing I actually own both the Kundalini Express (w-Holiday on the moon) and Ball of confusion 12 inch records

[hutch]

Oh yah those 12” records are key... Holiday on the moon never sounded so good.. on the I guess remastered box set the guitar just doesn’t come in as strong..doesn’t have the same bite as I remember from the express cd you had or the 12”

Black Pumas debut

Gotta give props to their PR team as their song "Colours" is everywhere... don't get me wrong Colours is a fantastic song, it's just everywhere... it was fun getting to see them on the inauguration last night and they were turning heads to be sure... the album is definitely one of the best i've heard in the last two years.

These guys were ready to bust out big time when covid struck

Adrian Quesada is a genius.
