DEF LEPPARD: 'Best Of' Certified Gold In U.K. - Nov. 5, 2004

Only a little over a week after DEF LEPPARD's "Best Of" compilation album was released in the U.K., it has been certified gold: at this time, more than 120,000 copies of the album have been sold already.

"Best of" is a European-only compilation album of featuring the band's greatest hits plus one new song (a cover of THE KINKS' "Waterloo Sunset"). The collection is due to receive a U.S. release in 2005.

the albums is just a complete rehash of their ,best of, compilation which has been out almost 10yrs already. this one has an extra couple of songs. complete cop out if you ask me, but try track down the 2cd ltd ed version with a whole pile of extra guff on there, another albums worth

It's a lot like Vault really with a few extra songs thrown in. It's a good compilation and if you don't have Vault then it's a good buy. It's a very good version of Waterloo Sunset. I think Ray Davies will be pleased that someone has covered his work so well.

Disk 1 IS Vault but with LLWTG inbetween Action and Make Love Like A Man. I'll still be buying the 2CD version and DVD.

Waterloo Sunset is excellent. This band still performs superbly.
