Down for the Count is the seventh studio album by American hard rock/heavy metal band Y&T, released on November 4, 1985, by A&M Records. The album marks the band's change to a lighter sound to find success in the hair metal scene.[3] It contains the band's biggest hit "Summertime Girls", which charted at #55 on the Billboard Hot 100. This song had initially appeared as the only studio track on the band's live album, Open Fire, released earlier in the year. The album itself peaked at #91 on the Billboard 200 on December 14, 1985. It was the last album with the original line-up of Meniketti, Alves, Kennemore and Haze, as Haze left the following year.
