Steve Clark 1987
Def Leppard guitarist Steve Clark passed away 25 years ago today and a tribute video playlist is available.
It features many tribute clips made by fans and some by Steve's fiancee Lorelei Shellist which include rare live footage and personal photos.
Lorelei has added a new 25th anniversary tribute video which was shot in Paris and last month in Sheffield at Wisewood Cemetery.
A classic clip from the 1988 Tour Manager's video of Steve doing his "Chef Leppard" guitar solo.
Plus rare audio/video interview footage from 1987-1989 and a four part 'All About Steve Clark' special with Phil answering fan questions from 2011.
A newly posted video features the original MTV US news report by Kurt Loder. It shows clips of Steve talking on 7th October 1988 in Atlanta, GA. You see a slightly extended part which was cut out of the intro of the MTV Rockumentary (where he talks about guitar lessons).
Read more about Steve's death including statements made by the band/Fan Club in 1991 plus tributes/quotes.
