Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen was recently interviewed at home in California and mentioned his work with Tesla.
Phil talked about the current Delta Deep tour on the US East Coast, producing the new Tesla album, the Def Leppard summer tour, his health and fitness, Joe's vocal issues and the Adrenalized book.
Phil said he will resume production work on the next Tesla studio album in April when he returns from the current Delta Deep tour.
Earlier this month Phil said they are trying to make the best ever Tesla songs on this new album which should be finished by the end of 2016.
This interview was conducted last week at his home in Laguna Hills, CA. Possibly on Friday 25th.
