Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen has been interviewed by Music Radar about the 25th anniversary of the Hysteria album.
Phil gives a track by track rundown of each track sharing his memories from the writing and recording of the band's most successful album.
I think it's safe to say there probably won't be a similar interview done in 25 years time about any re-recordings of these songs.
Hysteria Track By Track - Phil Collen Interview Quote
Animal
"So I sat with Mutt and Steve and we worked on a demo. I played through the Gallien-Krueger, Steve went through a Rockman, and we were both using Mutt's guitars. I think I had either a Charvel or a Larrivee. Even though it was a demo, we were cranked up. Coming through the speakers, I got a bit of feedback, just barely, and it ended up on the record."
