It’s Hysteria week so time for a Hysteria retrospective! It’s August 1987. I’m 16 years old and at Zayre with my Mom shopping for clothes for my senior year of high school. Bored with that I head to the music section and come across something in the new releases section: a new album by
Listening to it now. After ages, again. I remember discovering Magnum at around the same time I think... or thereabouts. Hysteria and Magnum's Storyteller's Night (85) were on permanent rotation.
New reader (and now subscriber) here. Plenty of resonance with me as Pyromania tour was my first ever live show at Hammersmith Odeon. Got the programme and ticket stub somewhere. Ears rung for a fortnight, never looked back.
For my musical tastes, DL drop off the radar for me after Hysteria but if truth be told, On Through The Night and High n Dry resonate the most but sadly I was too young to jump in those tours.

I am envious!

This album was part of my early university experience and I enjoyed this trip down memory lane. I appreciated your in-depth look at each song. Cheers.
Thanks! I may also do this for other Leppard albums since I’ve listened to them so much.
