Billy Kidd - Vivian Campbell Interview Quotes
"The new Def Leppard record's coming out this Fall. It'll be out in October."
What's the new Def Leppard record called?
"The Leppard record - we're just going with an eponymous title. We're just calling it Def Leppard because we've never had one of those in all the years. And it's actually a 14 track album. A very deep record. It's a very diverse album. Lot of different styles are covered. All the styles that Leppard have touched on through their career. And including a couple of areas that we've never gone to."
"I gotta say in my, as you mentioned before I replaced Steve Clark. That was 23 years ago. So in the 23 years that I've been with Leppard. I feel that this is the strongest record the band has made in that time. So it's a really, really great record."
New Songs On The Cruise
"And also the fact that the new album will have been released by then. The new Leppard record and the new Last In Line record. They'll be probably a greater chance that we'll play more than one song from the new record."
