- Rare footage of Def Leppard performing Armageddon It live in a rehearsal studio in 1987. This is taken from a Japanese TV program that also featured interviews with each band member.
Rick Allen looks so happy playing the drums. Imagine going through losing an arm and having to re-earn to play the drums using only three limbs. This man is a legend.
Blows Tommy Lee, etc away!!!
Yes he is! Truly inspirational! My husband is fantastic at drums and I asked him if he could do that if he lost an arm, and he said I doubt it...
It takes talent and he definitely had it, still has it! This is some good footage by the way.
That's why he is known as THE THUNDER GOD
Rick Allen is one of four reasons I play drums. Rick Allen (introduced me to bad ass rock music), Lars Ulrich (as a ten year old kid listening to One for the first time, I wondered if a better song was ever written), Dave Grohl (Teen Spirit was my first song learnt on the drums. He showed me how to use the hi hat accent) and Dave Lombardo (he pushed me to be better and it worked) in that order.
I think a law needs to be passed so that every single piece of footage that exists of Steve Clark is published immediately.
Criminally there is NOT a lot of video, especially interviews. There is a lot more of Elliot and the other band members. You have to remember "The Riffmaster" was an extremely shy, reserved bloke. His Father's abuse left Steve with deep demons, all he ever wanted to do sadly was please his Dad, who was a POS. The one person who arguably is responsible for taking 'the' most pictures of Steve, photo shoots and live was the great Ross Halfin. Halfin picked Steve very very early as someone seriously special, a killer classically trained guitarist but who was the bands genius as Steve penned and created the music at 90%. Halfin has thousands of pics. That Ross got these shows that Steve really trusted Halfin. The video that does exist is from their early Lyon and Germany gigs, US first tour with Pete Willis, their second tour with 'Pyro', and the third tour for 'Hysteria', 'in the round in your face'. Sadly 'Download' was only taped but from about a mile off, it is impossible to see Steve up close, but it does exist, someone uploaded it, but the European gigs are not posted, there's a Japanese TV song but to backing tracks I think it is from Koln Germany, bits of bobs and ends, Then you have San Remo which was Steve's last performance with the band and it was a overdub song, not live. If you dig and dig you'll find an enormous treasure trove of Steve. There was a website called "In Loving Memory of Steve Clark" which no longer exists, it had EVERYTHING you ever wanted on Steve, his rig from 78 to when he passed.
Curious what country it would pass in! The United States or the UK
@@williambroadstreet3353 yeah I would love to hear more footage of him playing non leppard stuff. He was classically trained
"c'mon Steve get it"..................and the "Riffmaster" riffs heavy. Gold.
Crying my eyes out looking at Steve.....he is still missed as much today as he was the day he died. That really shows how much he is loved.
He was fabulous 😭😭😭😭
he was a tremendous guitarist, very underrated.
I believe they lost their edge after he passed, and they've only recently managed to regain some of it but without Steve they arent the same band they were... He was a great artist and a good mate of theirs :(
Amen ❤! He is jamming in heaven because God loves headbangers!!
No Ego in their band, that's why the band is still go on until now...viva rick allen
@Leaving Nadir it is Bell's Palsy not Cerebral Palsy.
@Leaving Nadir not the same
Bayu Rahardianto selfless pros and perfectionists and still very good friends . You can tell there is a true brotherhood there !
Sir-----you hit it right; this is the rarest of successful bands, in that ego has NOT been an issue . That's why they are still together today.-------------------WolfSky9
100% spot on Bayu! Their humility comes through to this day and more so!!
This is so cool. I feel like I'm watching them in my garage, lol.
🤘😃👍No dude, this was filmed in MY garage! If you look really close in the corner there, you can see my car jack, jack stands, my leaf rake, shovel and a bag of ice melting rock salt there. The day b4, I had spilled some antifreeze in the center of the floor, where the drum kit sits, so I had to spread some granular oil dry, which you can also see if you look even closer @ 0:18.... 😉
Way Cool hearing a stripped down version without all the processed studio vocals & effects. Really shows how good of a raw band there were at their core which makes them even greater imho. Respect.
hippydippy AGREED
And don't forget, this was probably one of the first times they ever TRULY played this live, as in, no cuts, one take, it takes time to get a song entirely down playing live, till it is polished and smooth.
@Red Dogg - Rebel4Truth You obviously know next to nothing about the time frame for the album recording, release, and concerts. Maybe do some studying next time, because you are wrong.
Also remember that Rick's accident was in 84 , so this is only approx 3 years later , and he's killing it on the drums here !!! A testament to him and the band for sticking together etc . Thats why these guys are Rock Royalty , and deservedly so ...
Best version of this song I've heard live so far.
Honestly I would love to hear the whole hysteria album played in this kind of bare-bones format. You could actually hear all the guitars
Totally yes
This is one of the coolest clips of DF I have ever seen. Steve Clark is great, so sad he couldn't get himself together. I think we missed a lot of geat song like this one since he died. DL were never the same after his death
Holy shit this is just flat out outstanding! I've watched this over and over... amazing.
Steve is the man! Love his lil solo.
Yeah

So awesome to see Def Leppard like this
Everytime I hear someone say they cannot do something I tell them about Rick Allen from Def Leppard. He is the living example of "anything is possible if you want it!"
Rick was lucky to have such real friends! Who bought him electronic drums (they were very expensive then) and did not throw him out of the band!
Def Leppard has never had a guitarist who wasn't a complete master of their craft. You couldn't ask for a better band. You couldn't demand one.
Their live sound is amazing. A band that truly out performs their studio sound. I knew songs by them growing up but seeing them live changed my life. Nothing but sheer drive, passion and tremendous talent. RIP Mr. Clark. Wish I coulda saw you live.
The Cars live vocals always sounded better than studio recordings
The camera must really love Rick!!! :)
True! it is a great solo and Steve was an amazing guitarist! And why am I getting thumbs down for my comments? I said nothing negative!
the 80's rock is my real life 1,402%. i couldn't ask for a better hysteria life :-) .
There is no UA-cam or internet in 80's rock.
he is still rocking somewere im sure,he found his way here once,he will find a way back to us some how,shit every time i play a def song stave is around,he put his mark on def,and it will never go,he passed throw once,he will again ,just keep turning up the def till he does.god bless you steave a good soul, who left us all a little if not alot better off.gone only from this earth,For now anyway.
Pure Jewel thank you for posting
My favorite solo with Steve!!!!
My favorite band always👍
I just love the total rawness of this. Right down to the bare bones of the music and singing only. Very cool!
i still want a firebird guitar like steve has i always wanted one since i was 10. we all miss u steve!!
Ha! 2:06 the letter L written on Rick's left foot :D
THE EMERALD GOSLING too help him drum with one arm
Man what a rare treat!👌😎👉♥️👍🎸🥁
That's a kick-ass Firebird Steve is playing.
If I remember correctly that guitar has been missing since he passed away. His girlfriend at the time Janie Dean either sold them off or had someone sell them off.... She was a piece of shit heroin addict!
Lee Baron ._.
Steve ❤️❤️❤️
❤️Def leppard this song is awesome 🇬🇧🎶🎸thanx 4this 👀🥴💯🤘🤘
My goodness... Phil was the oldest here at the "BIG" 3-0 !!! And Rick was just a baby at 23! I had just moved out into my first apartment at 23 and rick was already touring for 7 years with Def Leppard.
Thanks Andy for uploading this. Takes me back it does. I'm off to see them again in December at gateshead. First time since 1988. :)
Thansk so much for posting! Joe is so hot here!
I think Mutt Lange was a genius for how he made these guys sound good. This video proves it.
That's what I was talking about! Not that they're bad. You can tell here that they're good! But Mutt Lange made them sound much better, specially BG vocals (far too good I must say).
this is AMAZING wow!!! UP THE LEPPARDS
This is a great video, watching them playing its awesome but Rick giving his best and mastering drums is beyond words, thanks for the video, Def Leppard ROCK'S!!!!!
DEF LEPPARD 4LIFE !
Much love to the band saw them open up for kiss i was there in Houston pure rock 🎸 of a life time memory
Steve needs to be shown more... RIP STEVE CLARK
yep there is a lot of stuff he played his own way that other guitar players wont do because they do not have the imagination he had. as a player, i crave video of his guitar playing style. there is so much there which is pure magic!

Steve Clark - cool as f...
Much respect to this band for keeping their drummer and brother after the accident. A man who overcame when do many others would have quit.
Steve's guitar is just unbelievable. It sounds better than the radio version
That was AWESOME to see thank you.
Rick Allen and his old Simmons electronic drum kit! His kit has definitely evolved since!
Excellent! Love it when their voices get warmed up and they kick it in thunder cats high gear. 💪
Ебаные гуки! Они на деревьях, Джонни
I don't have words to describe this video! Where did you found this? I want more and more! Amazing S. Clark! You will be always remembered.
I had the chance to see them in Paris (Bercy) for Hysteria tour. I was on the Rick Allen side no arm, so impressive. What a sound and show it was. Each member were top performer. But the strongest memory is the Steve Clark solo, with his double guitar, runnin' like mad all along the stage, givin' incredible sounds and riffs. The crowd was totally in osmosis with him!
Thanks for posting 👍🏼
Yeah honestly in the arena for man you can lose some of the individual instruments and all the noise. This was really cool to hear.
Even in the records there's so much production that you don't always hear the guitars like this.
cool all the way indeed,thats how he made life feel to when the def rocked cool.def all the time all the way it rocks me to heaven time and time again.wrong or right i dont fucking care i want def up and loud as you can get .rock on forever its,The only way anyway.
This sounds so raw, I love it!
thanks for posting this video!!!really rare!!
This was fantastic, it's great to see some old footage of the band! I think they sound better now, I guess practice makes perfect!! SAV is so hot!!!!! Thanks for posting
Steve is hotter and what do you mean they sound better now? Dude Steve died and you gonna say they sound better with dumbass fucking viv? Fuck you!
This is gold!
So rad seeing them back in the day with Steve, they sound amazing
Clarkie is Legendary!
The man was truly cool!
Thanks!
I have the VHS tape of Hysteria from the 80s &Not getting rid of it for any amount of money. I'm gonna get DVD man @ studio to put it on for me. I'm a lover of Music! Love you guys

So young ! Phil: 29; Joe: 28; Steve: 27; Sav: 25/ 26; Rick A.: 23/ 24... And I: 17! 😻😻😻😻😻 💖
Rick Allen IS the true THUNDER GOD!!! Thank you for setting the bar high brothaah. Your drive to carry on has inspired me to do the same. As we both have traveled a similar path. Only my accident from a motorcycle accident. Play LOUD......Play PROUD!!! 🤘🏼🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁🎵🥁
Awesome! I miss Steve so much. Love Viv, but damn I miss these days.
Masterpiece ever. Great
To Chance to see Def Leprd after Show..good Chance to know.
The man does with one arm what I can’t do with 2. Miraculous
wow awesome video! One of my favorite songs!
Unlike American bands Europeans ones appear to be more loyal to each other. Both U2 and Rammstein have maintained the same lineup throughout their entire careers. The Police and The Beatles opted to break up instead of keeping the gravy train moving with new members. Led Zeppelin chose to disband after the death of their drummer. As for Def Leppard? Not once did they consider replacing Rick Allen, who btw has been in the band since the age of 15. Also, the last time a band member was replaced was in 1992 after Steve Clark’s death..
They got rid of Pete willis
Joe's voice is amazing, and Phil, Sav, Steve, and Rick also did an amazing job! Love Def Leppard!!!🤘🔥💕🤩
God Bless the child
Happy 66th Birthday you sexy hunk Philly!
this band is better on their worse day,then any one on their best day,10+ outa 10,how could it not be its def,the show goes out if they want to or not,their pros,the the truth is they gave us years of music,and shows,and always well,shit on a bad day and no def leppared,im fucked,and so are you ,thanks for rocking me all the way def leppared no matter were im going lol!!!!!!!!!!.,ps im going to a def concert.lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! rock on rock on time for counting when the rockings done.

Greatness before noon.
Damn Joe Elliott could wear the hell out of some jeans. Anywayyyy, this was nice. I've been really getting into Def Leppard recently.
Steve and Sav are my fav's
damn, this is wild!
rick allen inspires me so much..rock on...
a great song..... my favourite!!!! rick your are the best drummer ever...
DL is still the best band in the world.
Rest In Peace Steve Clark.
Steve para sempre❤️
This is the only clip I have of them in this setting. I believe it was recorded in their studio in Holland prior to the Hysteria tour starting.
Awesome footage Andy
What is the source of the footage? Very cool. Thanks for sharing! Any live footage with Steve Clark is worth watching over and over. The song sounds so much better here compared to the studio version. Love how the guitar sounds just after the solo by Steve
+Javy C Its from a Japanese TV show
thank you very much. i appreciate the details. going to watch the footage again. its so good
Unfortunately this was the only song they showed though. The rest was interviews with the band.
Back in the 80's, Japanese TV televised a lot of concerts of bands that we like here in America. Very cool for Japanese rock fans to turn on the TV and see their favorite bands in concert or being interviewed.
ohhh do you have this interview with the band ! ??? and thanks for sharing this !
This is so damn cool I'm loving it
Wow this is AWESOME!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!
Steve should have had more camera time.
And he should have had more solos in the album too...
Cerati!!!
This is so cool!
this song rocks! arm's a gettin it is my favorite song!
Interesting that Steve doesn't get much time on video except during the solo 🧐
I know. That's weird. Not a lot of Sav either.
Hysteria es.... marco mi vida cada cancion
@RickSavageGirl cool again! i love this hair styling... it's all about 80s!! hm... i think yes, i have seen many def leppard's videos so i guess i have seen something like that too :)
god bless the drummer he is a god of all drummers thank god there in the hall of fame its about damn time they are
amazing, great performance, are you getting it? Def leppard got it!!!
awesome..thanks!!
That Soloist looks fucking awesome!
THAT'S WHAT IT CALLED A BAND
GREAT!!!!
