The Def Leppard EP, also known as the Getcha Rocks Off EP, is an EP that was released by the band Def Leppard.
The initial pressing of the EP was 1,000 copies, and included a picture sleeve. Later pressings numbered 10,000 and 15,000 copies and did not include a picture sleeve. One later version also swapped the positions of tracks one and two.
Two of the songs - "Getcha Rocks Off" and "Overture" - were re-recorded for Def Leppard's first LP, though on the LP "Getcha Rocks Off" is titled "Rocks Off". "Ride Into The Sun" remained unreleased until 1987, when a new version was recorded and used as a B-side to the "Hysteria" single. A version later appeared on the band's RetroActive LP, but reportedly this was neither the version from the EP nor the B-side version from 1987.
