Def Leppard has always been my favorite band
I probably have a dozen 2nd favorite bands , but the gap between those bands and Def Leppard is pretty large
this performance at the MTV music awards would be the last time Steve Clark perfomed with the band on stage
pretty sad , towards the end of the video , you see Joe Elliott put his arm arond Steve not knowing that would be the last time they performed together
The bands sound changed after that , granted , by now they were a little older and music had started to change by then as we welcomed in the 1990's
but Steve was then main writer for the band as he wrote or co-wrote 95% of thier songs
after his death , the songs changed , even the sound of the band changed
I always thought of Steve as the quite one in the band , but also probably the most important one , creative wise
the poor guy battled demons his entire life
