      I will always respect and admire Def Lep's dedication and support for Rick after his accident and how they could have easily had just bailed on him but they didn't,
      Instead they stood by him, helped him recover and cope with what had happened then worked out various clever technical ways in which he could continue to drum and be their guy. Definitely a solid display of love for their brother.... love it.

      If you watch some of their earlier live videos, he had two arms. After the accident, they stood by him as he made it work, using electronic drums and foot pedals. In the 80s and 90s, they played packed arenas and put on a great show. I love the def Leppard song " bringing on the heartbreak"

    Rick Allen is the drummer. On the afternoon of 31 December 1984, Allen was involved in a car crash, with his then-girlfriend Miriam Barendsen, on the A57 road in the countryside a few miles west of Sheffield, UK.While trying to pass another car at a high speed, he lost control of his Corvette C4, which hit a dry stone wall and entered a field; his left arm was severed. Doctors initially reattached the arm but later amputated because of infection. Despite losing his arm, Allen soon decided to continue playing drums with Def Leppard, and adopted a specially designed electronic drum kit. The band took a hiatus from onstage performances until 16 August 1986, when Allen was able to return to live drumming at the Monsters of Rock festival at Castle Donington. He has since re-adopted partially acoustic drum kits depending on the setting. He's an inspiration to anyone who has had to come back from adversity and succeed.

    When Rick lost his arm, the band never discussed replacing him or what they’d do. They just wanted him to be ok and figured if he had to leave the band it had to come from him. In the hospital Rick got motivated thinking of ways he could learn to drum with one arm. When he came back to the studio where leppard was recording he’d go into his own room every day and just practice and try to figure out what he could do. The band just supported him but deep down they of course figured they realistically it wouldn’t work even though none of them ever said it. One day he asked them all to come in and they watched as he completely did a song. The entire band was in tears by the end. Even today Rick Allen has done a bunch of work for Wounded Warrior encouraging amputees….

    They were already a big rock band when he lost his arm, but he didn't lose his friends. He had to reconfigure his drum set to use his feet for some things; essentially re-learning the drums. And yes, you are so right, and I've said it before many times, the only thing holding you back is you. Another example is Jeff Healy- See The Light.

    They are one of the best bands from the 80’s. I’ve seen them 8 times in concerts in the 80’s. The Drummer Rick Allen was in a car accident New Years Eve 1984 and his left arm was severed off. The band stood with him, he was determined to drum again. Between electric drum pads and his own drum kit he put together. They stood with him and they came back stronger than ever!! They were also the first Rock band to do the round stage.

Rick Allen lost him arm on New Years Eve in 1984 in a car accident. Theres a movie about it. If youre interested, Its called "Hysteria: The Def Leppard Story". This was his first tour after recovering and learning how to play again. He learned how to play his left arm parts with hid left foot.

    Rick Allen (drums) of Def Leppard joined the band in 1978 when he was only 15 yrs old... they were a local band from Sheffield, England. His parents had to co-sign his record contract in 1979 cos he was only 16 when Def Leppard was signed to record their 1st album 'On through the night' in 1980... Def Leppard went from opening band to selling millions of copies of their 3rd album 'Pyromania' in 1983, just behind Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' album. Of the 5 members of Def Leppard, Rick Allen was the most accomplished musician.
    In late 1984, Rick Allen was in a car accident in England, and his left arm was severed when he was thrown from his vehicle... doctors re-attached the arm, but an infection forced them to amputate it. During his recuperation in a hospital in 1985, he made the decision to play drums again w/ 1 arm... Def Leppard, in a loyal act, refused to replace him.
    Rick Allen worked to design an electronic drum kit which would allow him to use both feet on pedals to compensate the beats for his missing arm. It took a year for Allen to re-learn playing the drums... In 1986, Def Leppard played a number of shows and he proved that he was just as capable of playing drums after the accident - he was nick named "Thunder god" 🤘🤘
    Def Leppard finally completed their 4th album 'Hysteria' in 1987, and it became their biggest record.
    Rick Allen still plays drums for Def Leppard today, and there is video footage of him playing a drum solo.

    The coolest thing about this band is the way that not only waited for him to recover but also to wait for him to figue out how to paly with one arm. That's the most incredible thing about this band. Other bands drop people for the dumbest reasons.

    They hit fame then the next year the drummer lost his arm when he went through the sun roof of a Corvette. This band waited for him to recover and then they came up with a plan to modify his drum kit so that he could play with his other foot to make up for his lost arm. The band waited for him to relearn to play. Took about 3 years total time if I remember correctly. This band is amazing and they still tour today!!❤

As a huge Def Leppard fan I think I’ve seen this video 200+ times easily probably way more

    It doesn't get any more "rock and roll" then a musician pounding their drums with only 1 arm. Always amazes me. Fantastic courage Rick Allen.
    Nothing I can think of can ever top this except maybe a drummer with no arms and no legs.
    Of course his name would have to be Matt. Brother of Art, the guy hanging on the wall with no arms and legs, and sister of Eileen.
    The girl with 1 leg.
    "Hop in Eileen, let's go for a ride".
    Thank you, I'll be here all week, remember to tip your waitresses. Now coming to the stage, let's give it up for Bill Burr, Bill Burr ladies and gentleman."

    My father was a cocktail drummer of the 50's and 60's and he performed in nightclubs with various musicians. One of his piano players was in a school bus accident when he was a kid, so he grew up with one arm only. He played as well as any traditional 2 handed player.

  • @alonzocoyethea6148
    @alonzocoyethea6148 2 роки тому +2

    Drummer used a kit that would give you two "pops" for one hit,(I've played them occasionally) if you hit them on the left, the electric drum pads were divided L/R...then he used his own great timing/creativity to figure how to do fills. I always respected the band for not letting him quit after he lost his arm...I think it happened between thier 2nd and 3rd Lp's.

    I'm not the biggest Def Leppard fan, but I went to see them back in the 80s, and they put on a _HELLUVA_ show. The stage was in the middle (in the round) and it rotated as they played. Not a bad seat in the house. Also, your girl does seem camera shy. I think it's adorably cute.

    I think we might be about to see you guys crawling down the old Def Leppard rabbit-hole... dig away, it's lot of fun with a lot of great songs. If you see Rick Allen wearing a shirt, it's after his accident where he lost his arm. If you see him without a shirt, you will notice that he has two arms. He was still a baby when he joined the group. I think that's why they were so hell-bent on sticking with him when he decided he wanted to keep playing. He joined the band when he was 15, their first album came out when he was 16, their third album came out when he was 19, and he lost his arm just after his 21st birthday. The 4th album, hysteria (which included pour some sugar on me) came out before he was 24. He relearned the drums with one arm, and his left foot playing his left arm parts, in a little over 2 years. He's amazing

    Written by Joe Elliott, the late Steve Clark, Phil Collen, Rick Savage and Mutt Lange. Produced by Mutt Lange.
    Singer Joe Elliott said Queen is a major influence. 1 We Will Rock You influenced this song. 2 Guitarist Steve Clark died in Jan 1991. Freddie Mercury in Nov same year. Surviving members of Queen invited surviving members of Def Leppard to play at the Freddie Tribute. Queen guitarist Brian May presented DL to the Rock + Roll Hall of Fame.
    You can say that this is also one of the big hits for producer and songwriter Mutt Lange. He worked with Huey Lewis, The Cars, Loverboy, Billy Ocean, AC/DC, Thomas Dolby and The Boomtown Rats and got hits from all of them! After Def Leppard, Mutt Lange has worked with Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, Carrie Underwood, Maroon 5, Nickelback, Bryan Adams and Shania Twain. Number 1 songs are from BA and ST.
    The 2nd chorus + outro of this song sounds almost the same as the bridge in Everything I Do I Do It for You sung by Bryan Adams. 🤔 No copyright violation: Mutt Lange is the cowriter of both songs! 🤯🤯 The sung verses of PSSOM sound similar to Jukebox Hero written by Lou Gramm + Mick Jones and Magic written by Ric Ocasek. Mutt is the producer of all 4 songs! 🤯🤯🤯
    RIP Steve Clark, 20 years since his fall, which happened in Jan 1991.
    Suggested next video: Bryan Adams. Everything I Do I Do It for You. 🇨🇦

    The 80's ,new technology was kicking off with electronic drum sets ,they allowed you to
    delay or speed up the tempo on each beat ,but it was awesome that the rest of the members
    waited for their best friend to figure out how to drum with one arm ,there is a movie about
    that you can check out!..80's were just good Ole fun partying times ,the music was about having
    fun!

    Rico you've just discover Def Leppard's secret weapon. Now don't forget that drummers user their feet as well. I was able to attend a concert from this (Hysteria) tour back in the mid 80s, it of course was awesome. This album alone contains so many hits and then of course the previous album (Pyromania) has several as well. Glad your enjoying them they are one of the best of the 80s and 90s and there is still lots for you to react to by them.

    His Drum kit was modified so his left foot does not only what the left foot is suppose to do normally, but also all the right arm stuff. You’ll see brief shots in various videos and live shows of Rick Allen’s left foot hitting these pads around the left of the drum kit. Pretty cool stuff.
