Any Def Leppard fans?  Any body hear this yet?

I love what the Beach Boys and Bob Marley did with adding orchestra to classics, since I'm a casual DL fan, I futured I'd check this out.  First, it's a crime what they did to Pour Some Sugar.  It's horrible.  Everything else I've heard I really like.  The orchestra is really prominent so it adds a lot to the songs, IMO.

Any other thoughts?

Was a Def Leppard fan way back when until they became Brain Adams... had no idea they did the orchestra thing, how indulgent of them. Sounds truly horrible.

It just came out on Friday. Actually most of the songs came out really good. On some, the orchestra just plays along with the band. Pour Some Sugar actually is truly horrible.
Switch 265 was really good, as was Hysteria, Love Bites, and Bringing On The Heartbreak.

Good having a listen to some of those tracks again. It's been a minute. Yeah not so horrible as I was thinking and works better than I imagined. Then there's Pour some sugar on me, which is more horrible than I could have ever imagined.

I know right?  It's like they tried to make it really bad.  When Beach Boys and then Bob Marley did this the orchestra was in the background and sometimes you couldn't tell it was there.  This was much better, IMHO.

Yeah its pretty terrible man got no idea what they were shooting for with that! But the other few I checked out it blended surprisingly well, didn't smother the songs. And I had no idea Bob and Beach did it as well. Deep of course was a classic if you like purple, particularly old purple. Anyway was good listening to the Leppard again.
