Down for the Count is the seventh studio album by American heavy metal band Y&T, released in 1985 through A&M Records. The album marks the band's change to a lighter sound to find success in the hair metal scene. 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 lone studio track on the band's live album, "Open Fire", released earlier in the year.

This  was the last album to feature the original lineup of Meniketti, Alves, Kennemore and Haze, as Haze would depart the following year. Reception.
