Drop Down and Get Me is the 11th studio album by American rock and roll singer-songwriter Del Shannon. It was considered a comeback album and released in December 1981 after some delay.[1] The album was produced by Tom Petty and included the Heartbreakers as a backing band.[2] It was the last album of new material Shannon released in his lifetime.
Cub Koda of AllMusic said Del Shannon "sounds great as well, writing nine of the 12 tracks assembled and turning in bang-up readings of Don Everly's "Maybe Tomorrow," the Rolling Stones' "Out of Time" and Phil Phillips' classic "Sea of Love"."
Billboard said the album maintains "a very mainstream, highly accessible commercial edge".[3]
