Description of Def Leppard - Visualize / Video Archive:
After its 1987 album Hysteria went through the roof, where could Def Leppard go next? This three-hour-plus program shows: the 90-minute Visualize presents the British band's videos from 1988 (where Historia ends) to its mid-'90s albums Adrenalize, Vault, and Slang. The two-hour Video Archive compiles rare performance footage and videos, including Live from Don Valley Stadium, which immortalizes the band's triumphant 1993 return to hometown Sheffield for a sold-out show (at 45 minutes and eight songs, it's obviously not the entire performance). Next comes 40 minutes' worth of six videos from 1993 to '95, and finally a 1995 acoustic performance from a small Sheffield club that clocks in at 30 minutes and includes stripped-down versions of "Armageddon It" and "Animal," and a surprise cover of David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust." --Kevin Filipski
Def Leppard - Visualize / Video Archive Reviews:
Visualize/Video Archieve - Def Leppard 
2008-01-07 - Awesome. Excellent. Breathtaking! If you love Def Leppard even just a little, this DVD will blow you away. Really amazing. Totally cool.
Def Leppard Visualize Video Archive 
2007-10-29 - I love watching these videos! I hesitate to say Def Lep in their "hey day" because as far as I'm concerned their time is still "Now"! I went to see them in concert this past summer and these guys look better than ever! We are all way over 40, but watching them performing on stage you'd think they were still twenty something. With a new album coming out, it's fun to watch how far they've evolved. Can't wait for the new music! Keep going strong guys because I love ya!
Great material, but showing it's age 
2007-08-11 - Def Leppard - Visualize / Video Archive is a wonderful collection of their videos, live and rare performances, interviews, and an acoustic set by one of, if not the biggest band of the 1980s. However, the reason I dropped it from 5 to 4 stars is the visual design - it's very much struck in the late '80s (and in a negative way) when released in 1993 and '95 with bight neon colors, scene wipes, and a general "dated" design when Grunge was at it's uprising and peak and more muted colors and designs were the calling for video collections at the time. This doesn't take away from the excellent material contained within, but makes watching it somewhat "cringewothy".
Great Video 
2007-05-20 - I am a big fan of Def Leppard and this music video rocks. Anyone who loves their music, will appreciate this dvd.
Great collection now on DVD, must have for the leppard fan 
2007-04-26 - This is another great DVD to have, following the other DVD release Historia/in the round,in your face collection. This contain Visualize, which covers their return to their hometown of sheffield england to play the stadium. It also show the first concert footage of the band introducing Vivian Campbell as their guitarist, stepping in after the tragic death of Steve. Fun to watch the band at home. Video Archive is the tape release At the time of the Vault best of CD. It covers the videos that came after the Historia release, esentially the two albums of Adrenalize and retroactive videos, plus a new video for the song When love and hate collide, and the last action hero's two steps behind. Must have for leppard fans, pumped they are finally on DVD, and not to expensive to buy either.
