The live disc draws not just on the period surrounding the album but on the past 30 years of Def Leppard history. Among the highlights here are songs by The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, The Police, Jobriath, and Creedence Clearwater Revival, among others. The covers album inspired numerous additional live and studio tracks (many of which ended up on retailer-exclusive releases). The three albums have been supplemented on the box set with one CD or two LPs of twelve B-sides one CD or 2 LPs of Yeah! Studio Covers and one CD or LP of Yeah! Live. Lead single "Nine Lives" featured country hitmaker Tim McGraw, and the band even performed the album's "Love" on television with Taylor Swift. It also reached the top ten across the Atlantic. Instead, Ronan McHugh got the job done, earning the band a No. The final LP represented on this set, Songs from the Sparkle Lounge, harkened back to the sound of Def Leppard's 1980s heyday with big hooks and bigger production at one point it was even rumored that Hysteria producer Mutt Lange would helm the album. 16 berth on the Billboard 200, and just failed to reach the top 50 of the U.K. 2006's Yeah! took the pop direction one step further, consisting entirely of covers of familiar songs from such rock heroes as David Bowie, The Kinks, ELO, Free, Badfinger, Mott the Hoople, and Faces. The singles "Now" and "Four Letter Word" notched placements on the Mainstream Rock chart while the former also reached the Adult Top 40. The resulting LP performed respectably, reaching No. Working with producers Pete Woodroffe, Marti Frederiksen, Per Aldeheim, and Andrea Carlson, Def Leppard embraced a more pop-oriented sound than their past hard-rock endeavors. X, Def Leppard's first album of the millennium, was the band's eighth studio LP and tenth overall album counting the compilations Retro Active and Vault. This set, available on six CDs or nine 180-gram vinyl LPs, collects all three of the band's studio albums from the first decade of the 2000s (2002's X, 2006's Yeah!, 2008's Songs from the Sparkle Lounge) plus three newly curated collections of rarities. After a 2+-year wait since the last volume, Def Leppard will continue its chronological box set series with the June 11 release of Volume Three from Virgin/UMe.
