The tone of Vivian’s Anderson guitar in this is out of this world. The dueling solos is by far one of my favorite performances by my favorite guitarists, who just happen to be in my favorite band.
It's Campbell, but yeah, love his work. He joined in 1992 and this performance was 1993 some time. It was a great home for him. Dio did not treat him well apparently.
Will you let me know when you found a way and can give me a call. It would be a lot of fun. But in the meantime we can listen to the music and remember.
Hey 👋 there Dude I just subscribed to your TH-cam channel ok 👌🏾 dude lol 😂 I love ❤️ all of the Def lepord songs dude rock on 🤘 Def lepord I’m am a number one fan of Def lepord dude Lol 😆
Leppard is releasing all these decent live concerts. Nobody cares about them playing LA in 82’ on the pyromania deluxe. True Lep fans want this concert available to purchase! This is by far their best overall live performance + set list . Sucks cos lep has so many good songs. They play mostly the same setlist though. Love the “Have you ever needed someone so bad” they play at this show. And you are right this version of Rocket Kicks ass!!! By far the best.
The section beginning at 3:22 is a core memory for me. I was 10 years old, on top of my Dads shoulders just having my mind blown by the sound and the complete control of the crowd they had. Something about the groove and everyone clapping along has stayed with me all this time and I learned to play drums off the back of it. My Dad passed away a couple of years ago but I come here a lot to listen and be transported right back into this memory. Thanks for posting
Any other fellow Metallica fans here🤔 as ive only after all these years realised recently after listening to sugar on me then found Rocket then animal iam like wtf these are ffing amazing awesome band and British 💯👏🎼🎵🎶🎙🎸🔊🔊🔊🔊
@jujitsusti7719 You know England has the top bands in the world. Led zeppelin-Pink Floyd-Def Leppard-AC/DC-Eric Clapton-David Bowie-Rod Stewart. Forgive me if I left some out, 64 yrs.Old and memory is half full. Rock on family
this is the best live performance of a rock song, and awesomeness starts at 4.20... I agree it is completely impossible to not love Def Leppard, which for me is the greatest Rock band ever
This is a great live version of Rocket. But I saw Def Leppard live In the early 90's (91 or 92) and Rick did an awesome drum solo during Rocket as his podium rose in the air. Out of all the concerts I've seen (and there have been many) that one concert was THE best I have ever seen. Of course, that was back when you could AFFORD to see a concert.
Just found this Vid. I was at this Concert just out to the Right of the stage. Hot day! Nearly suffered from dehydration but it was worth it. Happy days.
Simply the quintessential version of Rocket that the whole world needs to hear. I wish they would bring this version with the open dueling guitars back. It's been a while guys....we need to hear is again.
I love how even back then they were working hard and running computer sequencing for lights and sound effects but still performed their asses off. No autotune! No backing tracks! No shitty dancers and crappy outfits! Genuine talent and musicianship!
You’ve got that right! 100%. Def Leppard was my utmost fav hair band. I just wish I coulda seen them way back when. Joes voice could hit higher notes back then, but They’re still good now though. I saw them on 2017 or 2018 in Spokane WA for the 1st time. I hope to see them again. Def Leppard rules and always will
Backing tracks are not bad they uplift the vocals as long as there's no pitch correction and the singer is actually singing and then maybe backing tracks for the huge harmonies which I think a lil bit was added here too you just don't hear it there's just four singers it can't be that huge😅
Joe was having some more trouble with his vocals from like 2012-2014 but by 2015 he had somehow like rebooted his voice. Every time he has some difficulty keeping his vocals consistent he changes them in some way and makes it work. It's amazing to be honest.
I remember the 7 day weekend tour in 93. Saw them twice. Once at Reunion Arena in Dallas. During Rocket, Sav would get in the riser with Rick and it would go up and in past interviews Sav would always say he was scared of heights so he would back up against Rick. Epic fucking version of this song. I had this on VHS and wore it out. Its 2018 and i will see Leppard in Dallas, San Antonio and Hawaii this year. Show number #59, #60 & #61
At least we are blessed to have these talented artists musical artists who have chosen this profession for their line of work, how else could you get this size of party together
Im jealous of every single person who attended this! Imagine being up front, hearing those lead parts just wailing in your ears omg goosebumps 🌪🪐🚀💚🐱💻 phil is my spirit animal x
This Is A Perfect Track For One Of My Most All Time Favourite 2019 Sci-Fi Space Travel Movie AD ASTRA Because I Know Why For Reason Rocket Launch Scene.
Me and me ol m8 Dave frm the RN were there nr the front of the stage to the right, the weather waz Awesome and so was the line up, an amazing day,..ROCK ON my DUDES!
Years ago I saw them in Nashville, then drove to Atlanta the next day to watch them again. Two shows in two days. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Chris Young yeah, I also saw them on this tour. September, 1993 in Pittsburgh. Then, 25 years later, I saw them again in pittsburgh, June of this year. They still ROCK. Journey sounded TERRIBLE but Lep was AMAZING!
I have seen this band 16 times since 1983 when Uriah Heep opened for them to this last concert when Heart opened for them. They are just that damn good. This with out a doubt is the best live version of a song I have ever heard or seen in person.
As many others I LOVE this performance. Clear to see the Leps were inspired playing at home and it gave them a whole new edge. Sav's bass sound is to die for and Allen's drumming is spot on. Good that see that they got a bit more limelight than usual.
was born in 1988 and i was raised on def leppard! there are home movies of me rocking in my crib back and forth whenever my dad would turn them on! def leppard rocks!!!
Absolutely the best live version of this song & I'd venture a guess and put it in their Top 5 Live Def Leppard songs of all time. The guitar(s) solos are absolutely fantastic. I just noticed I commented already but that's what DL does to me.
I’ve been listening to this for years and slowly, but surely piecing together every little bit of this solo that I’ve heard this improvision solo on rocket is one of the coolest I’ve ever heard them play live the choice of notes, and the phrasing is something completely. splendid it captures my ears. Every time I hear it, and it never gets old a complete mystery two guitar players, and a joy to the senses.
Thanks, didn't know. Will be seeing them tomorrow in Chicago!!! I love Def Leppard. But last week was in London to see Queen two nights at the Hammersmith Apollo. WOW!! They rock as well and lOndon is great!
Def Leppard ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

Someone show me the way back to the 80s please..
Will you let me know when you found a way and can give me a call. It would be a lot of fun. But in the meantime we can listen to the music and remember.
listening this kind of music!! for sure
Me too
Best decade of music ever.
I'm working on a time machine my friend.
Vivian and Phil's double lead in the middle is sick!!! Love this version!
I agree...my favorite version of this song 🐆 🚀 🛰
This is exactly why we love Def Leppard.
Well said my friend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No arguments there. 👍😊
I Agree 100%
Absolutely...just wish I had gone to this!!!!
The best Def Leppard live rendition. Years later I still get goosebumps hearing this version of “Rocket”.
Me too!❤

The Sound engeneer deservs a very special Grammy! Masterpiece!
The drums so prominent in this track. Absolutely amazing sound. Well done Rick
Great hard rock tracks always have a huge snare drum at the forefront!
Any other fellow Metallica fans here🤔 as ive only after all these years realised recently after listening to sugar on me then found Rocket then animal iam like wtf these are ffing amazing awesome band and British 💯👏🎼🎵🎶🎙🎸🔊🔊🔊🔊

@@jujitsusti7719 love Metallica, especially Enter the Sandman. 64 and rocking like I'm 16 again
This live version is pure magic. Incredible musicians at their best. Gives me the chills
This band will always and forever, Rock our hearts!!!!!! Right people
@@monicalovell573 Rock on 🤘
this is the best live performance of a rock song, and awesomeness starts at 4.20... I agree it is completely impossible to not love Def Leppard, which for me is the greatest Rock band ever
this live performance of rocket is pure perfection gives me chills everytime I see this
The guitar solo in the middle of this song is sick! 😮 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
I think you don't know about was is Rock n roll, Mate..!!! . AJ was here 🤘🏻🎸 1993 🇬🇧 Sheffield. 🎉🎉🥃🚬
Still, thirty one years later, watching Rocket live takes my breath away..
@ 3:20 get ready for a totally awesome & radical (in both senses of the word) INTERLUDE!
The duelling guitar solos was the highlight of this particular live performance of Rocket for me. Even in 2023!!!
This is a great live version of Rocket. But I saw Def Leppard live In the early 90's (91 or 92) and Rick did an awesome drum solo during Rocket as his podium rose in the air. Out of all the concerts I've seen (and there have been many) that one concert was THE best I have ever seen. Of course, that was back when you could AFFORD to see a concert.
I’d love a link to see this!
Saw it. In the round tour. 👍
I saw that exact thing in Toledo in 1992 the second night blew my mind.
Rick Allen is an absolute beast of a human being on a drum set
Exactly man he's the reason I started playing 🥁
A one-armed monster of rock.
@@g00gleminus96 I'm using the same china cymbal as him. He uses an fx oriental series on his kit
Imagine how great he would be on the guitar
Y con una sola mano , magistral
A legend band of all time. Rick on drums with one arm is incredible to this day.
Absolutely unbelievable is Rick.
Yes, this is the best version, especially due to the Whole Lotta Love. Rocket Baby, YEAH!
Damn!! I don't know what's best during the solos, the guitars, the drums, the bass, the WHOLE moment... \m/
+Jesus Rodriguez
The crowed, dude! The crowed!
🐆 🎸
Just found this Vid. I was at this Concert just out to the Right of the stage.
Hot day! Nearly suffered from dehydration but it was worth it. Happy days.
The bass, damn
Let’s not overlook the badass bass in this song
OMG yes ! Sav ❤❤❤❤❤
6:51 got chills i am obsessed with his voice
Simply the quintessential version of Rocket that the whole world needs to hear. I wish they would bring this version with the open dueling guitars back. It's been a while guys....we need to hear is again.
Really I never tire either. ROCK YA BABY...GUITAR DRUMS....❤❤❤
def leppard IS legend 👌👌
Beautifully executed with a bit of Led Zeppelin mix (Whole Lotta Love) tune , now 58 still listen, great band!
the BEST live Version I have heard of this song. It is actually amazing.
I love how even back then they were working hard and running computer sequencing for lights and sound effects but still performed their asses off. No autotune! No backing tracks! No shitty dancers and crappy outfits! Genuine talent and musicianship!
Much appreciation for the "no crappy outfits" part!

Truth
Backing tracks are not bad they uplift the vocals as long as there's no pitch correction and the singer is actually singing and then maybe backing tracks for the huge harmonies which I think a lil bit was added here too you just don't hear it there's just four singers it can't be that huge😅
OMG this band is like in another world . Im almost in tears.
THIS ABSOLUTELY BRINGS ME CHILLS. BEST LIVE EVER!!!!!! ❤
This was at the Don Valley stadium in my home town of Sheffield which sadly isn't there any more - the stadium I mean, Sheffield is still there.
So many wows! Magic sound at this show. These guys are amazing. Right up there on first page of rock legends
They still play this well even in 2015! Saw them in Edmonton, Canada. Great show!
lol
+Justin Kovach i saw them in victoria this year, the tickets were my christmas presents, epic show, agreed!
+Justin Kovach saw them in Melbourne, Australia last week, they're still amazing!
Joe was having some more trouble with his vocals from like 2012-2014 but by 2015 he had somehow like rebooted his voice. Every time he has some difficulty keeping his vocals consistent he changes them in some way and makes it work. It's amazing to be honest.
yes this is the best beyond awesome
And Phil Collen at his solo antics best! Pick Slides and windmilling. THIS is Def Leppard at the best! Sadly I don't think you ever see this any more.
live performance this was peak def leppard after steve died they found their groove and worked off it amazing musicians!
I get Goosebumps every single time i listen to this
Love the trib to Led Zeppelin!!
Holy shi**†* that Led Zep interlude nearly killed me!!!! This is flippin' amazing!!!! Oh, Joe!!!!!
I agree. Love that they worked a bit of LZ's "Whole Lotta Love" into this. Thank you for sharing it ... :)
this era of Def Leppard is my favourite 😻😎🎶🎸🎤
The live version is absolutely awesome. love it the guitar duel
Never understood why they didn't solo over the studio version's middle section... This kicks ass.

Live and counting the countdown has begun back to the 80 and Def Leppard her I come.
Saw them on this tour, they did Rocket this way . Awesome!

This set is absolutely scorching!!!😎👏🔥🔥🔥🎶🎸🎸🙌🏽
Me parece que pocas bandas pueden tocar así en vivo de esta forma. Con tal calidad. Def foreverrrr 🤘😏🤘
I have seen this band 16 times since 1983 when Uriah Heep opened for them to this last concert when Heart opened for them. They are just that damn good. This with out a doubt is the best live version of a song I have ever heard or seen in person.
I have heard many replicas but agree this is the best! The guitar work was incredible!
One of the greatest nights in music history...........
This is just too freakin' good. The Leps at their very best.
As many others I LOVE this performance. Clear to see the Leps were inspired playing at home and it gave them a whole new edge.
Sav's bass sound is to die for and Allen's drumming is spot on. Good that see that they got a bit more limelight than usual.
Already HALL OF FAME BAND....FOR EVER DEF LEPPARD. 🎸🎶👍😎🤘
was born in 1988 and i was raised on def leppard! there are home movies of me rocking in my crib back and forth whenever my dad would turn them on! def leppard rocks!!!
That just absolutely made my morning...Def Leppard live is nothing short of incredible!
Este para mi, es el mejor recital en la historia de Def Leppard!!!!! Algún día vengan a tocar a la Argentina :)
I love this live version of Rocket!
Rock on Joe is a great singer.
Absolutely the best live version of this song & I'd venture a guess and put it in their Top 5 Live Def Leppard songs of all time. The guitar(s) solos are absolutely fantastic. I just noticed I commented already but that's what DL does to me.
Phil's Little dance groove at 04:31 was just awesome!
I was there in the crowd, Love this version of the song, it was such an amazing evening..
I’ve been listening to this for years and slowly, but surely piecing together every little bit of this solo that I’ve heard this improvision solo on rocket is one of the coolest I’ve ever heard them play live the choice of notes, and the phrasing is something completely. splendid it captures my ears. Every time I hear it, and it never gets old a complete mystery two guitar players, and a joy to the senses.
Joe Elliot en su mejor momento!!
Y la banda a un nivel espectacular!
Enorme temazo en directo!
Encima un bombón😂
Ni cómo decirlo mejor👍
Thanks, didn't know. Will be seeing them tomorrow in Chicago!!! I love Def Leppard. But last week was in London to see Queen two nights at the Hammersmith Apollo. WOW!! They rock as well and lOndon is great!
1,000 % the best video of ROCKET
I'll agree with the notion that this is the best live version of the song. I saw an extended version in the Round on the adrenalize tour - awesome!!
