To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of DEF LEPPARD's fifth studio album Adrenalize, Phil Collen plays the 'White Lightning' solo - check out the video below. Adrenalize was released on March 31, 1992 and debut at #1 on both the UK Album, US Billboard Charts and the Australian ARIA Top 50 Albums Chart. The album sits at four-times platinum in Canada, three-times platinum in the US and gold in the UK.

The creation of the album was marked with tragedy as on January 8th, 1991, Steve Clark was found dead in his London home. The coroner's report revealed that Clark had died of an accidental mix of alcohol with painkillers and anti-depressants that led to compression of the brain stem.

A search for Clark's replacement was held off until after the completion of the album. Former DIO and WHITESNAKE guitarist Vivian Campbell was hired and he appears in all promotional videos for the album's singles except 'Let's Get Rocked'.
