High 'n' Dry is the second studio album by British heavy metal band Def Leppard, released on July 11, 1981 (see 1981 in music) and the last studio album by the band to feature original co-lead guitarist Pete Willis, who was fired on July 11, 1982 for excessive alcohol consumption and was replaced by former Girl guitarist Phil Collen for their band's multi-platinum third album, Pyromania. Despite his departure from the band, his recorded parts were still used in High 'n' Dry as well as Pyromania. In addition, Phil Collen was credited in the liner notes for the High 'n' Dry album, despite his "official" hire date during the Pyromania recording sessions. Its title song "High 'n' Dry" made #33 on VH1's 40 Greatest Metal Songs. -WIKIPEDIADOWNLOAD
