Pyromania

An epic 80s album! I recommend this one.

Wonderful album

I grew up in the seventies and eighties so this CD was in my collection as an album and probably a cassette tape along the way. It’s remastered beautifully and I wasn’t really sure what to expect with the second cd that this same with. OMG! The boys sound great and then some! They were all on point that night in L.A and I’m estactic they caught it on the soundboard! So they were firing on all cylinders and the sound quality of the recording is nothing short of a professional’s expectation. So if you’re on the fence about this I’m here to tell you to just do it your won’t have any regrets. Rock on you pyromaniacs!

Great music

When I heard earlier this year that Def Leppard was releasing deluxe editions of Pyromania and Adrenalize, I was ecstatic, to say the least. The only downside was that I had to wait 3 months to get my hands on them, but for Pyromania, the wait was definitely worth it.The deluxe edition is a must-have for any Lep fan. It contains all 10 tracks from the original album remastered on disc 1, as well as a complete live concert recorded at the LA forum in 1983 on disc 2. I've heard some complain that the remastering on the first disc isn't that noticeable, but I can't agree with that. Comparing the tracks on the deluxe edition with tracks from the original 1983 release, you'd have to be deaf to not hear the improvement. The sound is clearer, crisper, and brings new energy into the songs that you can't get with the originals. This is especially great if you happen to like songs off the album that weren't necessarily big hits and haven't yet been re-released and remastered on a compilation album ("Comin' Under Fire" happens to be my second favorite song on Pyromania, and I was always disappointed at not having a remastered version of the song, but now I do!).While the remastering is a great treat, the second disc is really what makes the deluxe edition a must-have. Its 15 tracks cover an entire Def Leppard concert at the LA Forum in 1983 (and I do mean the entire concert...they even left in Phil and Steve's guitar solos). While bootlegs of the concert have been around for ages, the mastered recordings on the deluxe edition sound SO much better. Joe's voice sounds great (he was only 24 and at his prime) and the instrumental backup he has from Phil, Steve, Sav, and Rick is just absolute perfection. For many, this is also the only time you'll ever get to hear professional, mastered live recordings of some of Def Leppard's earlier songs off High 'N' Dry, since there are no other recordings of these save for some extremely rare limited release DVDs.To sum it up, Pyromania the Deluxe Edition is worth every penny it costs. In my opinion, it should've been released a lot earlier (I'm surprised it didn't come out with the deluxe edition of Hysteria) but better late than never! Any true Def Leppard fan should pick one up as soon as possible and even casual listeners should seriously consider owning a copy.

Docking it a star for no digital download. What happened to the digital download when you buy a hard copy of something?I love this album...I wore the cassette out back in the day, replaced it with the CD, have no idea who snagged it so bought another one.I'm sure everyone is on board with just online stuff but just wait till your internet goes down or electricity is off. Then you have to go old school.

CD arrived on time and in great shape. Thank you

Ok
