In this episode of Classic Rock Midday Flashback, we dive into one of the most iconic rock albums of the 80s—Def Leppard’s Pyromania. Released on January 20, 1983, this album redefined the sound of stadium rock, and today, we’re shining the spotlight on its standout hit, "Photograph."
We explore how this infectious anthem shot to #1 on the US Rock Tracks chart and became a defining moment for the band, all thanks to its unforgettable chorus and polished production by legendary producer Mutt Lange. From its inspiration (a longing for an unattainable love, with Marilyn Monroe as the muse) to its massive impact on MTV and rock culture, Photograph cemented Def Leppard’s place in rock history.
Tune in to relive the magic and learn what made Pyromania a game-changer in classic rock.
