Scraping the bottom of the barrel at #5 is Major Matered with his request for a Def Leppard Dbl Play. Seems Materd is ready to go! “Let’s Go”  was  the first track Released in 2015 as the lead single from their self-titled album, “Let’s Go” quickly became a fan favorite and a staple in the band’s live performances. Let’s Go” is a classic Def Leppard track that showcases the band’s talent and ability to create hard-hitting rock songs with memorable melodies and anthemic choruses. It’s a song that captures the spirit of rock and roll and encourages listeners to let go of their fears and embrace the excitement of life. The second track was “Let It Go” something Major Materd says when someone has his left handed cigarette. “Let It Go” is a classic example of Def Leppard’s early sound, which was heavily influenced by the hard-rocking bands of the 1970s. The song features a raw energy and passion that is characteristic of the band’s early work, and it remains a fan favorite to this day. Great job Maj Materd! Salute!

Commander Frank L did not realize it’s Dbl Play Wednesday, but that’s Ok I never realize what day it is everyday. frank hits the two spot with a DBL shot  of Mountain. The first track I picked out to help frank out. It was Never In My Life. It was released in 1970 as part of the band’s debut album “Climbing!”

“Never in My Life” is a song that captures the essence of classic rock. It’s a driving, guitar-heavy track that feels like an anthem for heartbreak and passion. The song’s lyrics are straightforward, but the emotion behind them is palpable, making it a favorite of classic rock fans. The second track was… Yep .. you guessed it! Mississippi Queen . Released in 1970, the song has become a staple of classic rock radio and is often cited as one of the greatest rock songs of all time. In addition to its catchy riffs and memorable chorus, “Mississippi Queen” is notable for its unique sound. The song was recorded in just one take, with the band members playing together in the same room to capture the raw energy of their live performances. The result is a song that feels like it could have been performed in a smoky bar in the deep south, capturing the essence of American rock and roll. Great Job Frank! Salute!
