Ab morgen wird The Early Years 79-81 zu bekommen sein: Ein neues Box-Set von Def Leppard, das neben ihren ersten beiden Studio-Alben On Through The Night und High'n'Dry auch Raritäten wie BBC-Sessions und einen restaurierten Konzertmitschnitt von 1980 enthalten wird.
›Glad I'm Alive‹ schicken die Hardrocker voran: Ein unveröffentlichtes Studio-Stück, das im Zuge der Aufnahmesessions zu ›Wasted‹ entstand — die 1979 erschienene Single enthielt eine andere Fassung der Nummer als später die LP On Through The Night (1980).
