Def Leppard will release a new live album from a concert that occurred around 40 years ago.

Singer Joe Elliott recently had an interview on Eddie Trunk’s SiriusXM show in which he revealed that Def Leppard will be releasing their first official live album.

“We thought about this about a year and a half ago, and there’s going to be a celebratory release,” Elliott said. “I don’t know how much of this I can say right now. I might be breaking protocol. But I will say this much: There’s a companion piece to On Through the Night, there’s a brand-new, just-mixed live performance from the Oxford Theatre in 1980 … which has never been heard ever.”
