Def Leppard as been in the headlines a lot lately.  The legendary rockers just wraped up a U.S. tour co-headlined by Journey, they're set to tour across Ireland and the U.K. next month, and were recently announced as nominees for The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's class of 2019.  On November 30, Bludgeon Riffola and UMe will release two new collections that look back on Def Leppard's illustrious career:  a best-of compilation entitled The Story So Far:  The Best Of, and a new 10-disc 7" single box set called Hysteria:  The Singles, celebrating their multi-platinum album.

The Story So Far will be available in a variety of configurations, including 1-CD, 2-CD, 2-LP with 7" single, as well as digital download and streaming.  The standard 1-CD version collects 17 tracks, including the smash hits "Animal," "Photograph," "Rock of Ages," and "Pour Some Sugar On Me."  It also includes a previously unreleased version of Def Leppard's cover of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," which the group previously performed for a Spotify digital single.

The 2-CD edition is expanded to include 35 songs, featuring tracks from across the band's four-decade career. "Personal Jesus" features again, as does the radio remix version of another cover, "Rock On," marking its physical media debut.  The 2-LP version of The Story So Far follows the program of the standard 1-CD version, though "Personal Jesus" doesn't appear on the two main discs.  However, it is included on a special bonus single (exclusive to the first manufacturing run), where it's backed with the new holiday tune, "We All Need Christmas," which makes its physical debut on this collection.

All configurations of The Story So Far are available now for pre-order and will be released on November 30.

The same day, Def Leppard will celebrate their multi-platinum album, Hysteria with the release of a 10-disc 7" single box set, Hysteria:  The Singles.  The limited-edition collection features all of the original singles from their landmark album in picture sleeves that, when presented together, show the original Hysteria album cover.  Two bonus singles -- "Excitable" / "Run Riot" (album version and "Love and Affection" / "Don't Shoot the Shotgun" are exclusive to the set.  Also included is a replica of the Spanish "Animal" single.  All of the discs are housed in a lift-off box which also includes a booklet with a full discography and introductory notes from Joe Elliott himself.

Hysteria:  The Singles and The Story So Far will be released on November 30.  You can find pre-order links and track listings for both collections below.
