Since their formation over four decades ago, Def Leppard has released numerous hit albums and singles that have topped charts worldwide. Their iconic songs such as "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and "Love Bites" have become anthems for generations of fans.

Known for their innovative approach to music production, Def Leppard seamlessly blends hard rock with catchy melodies and harmonies. Their electrifying live performances are a testament to their dedication and passion for creating unforgettable experiences for their fans.

Vertigo is a multinational music label that was launched in the UK on November 7, 1969. It quickly gained popularity and was adopted by other labels within the global Phonogram group. In 1971, Vertigo made its way to the US through the Phonogram subsidiary. The label became known for releasing popular progressive rock albums in the 1970s and is currently owned by Universal Music Group.

The original logo of Vertigo, known as the "swirl" logo, was created by Marina Apollonio in 1967. This iconic logo remained in use from 1969 to 1973 and featured a plain white A-side with a complete tracklist and a black B-side for certain releases. In early 1973, the label design changed to another iconic image called the "spaceship," which was painted by Roger Dean. This design appeared in various shades of blues and greens throughout the '70s.

Around 1981, UK releases of Vertigo started using a more plain design with an orange background while other European markets continued to use the spaceship design. With its rich history and diverse range of artists, Vertigo remains an influential force in the music industry today.
