Double Trouble is the fifth studio album by the British hard rock band Gillan, released in 1981. It was released as a double album, the first disc containing studio material, and the second containing live recordings. It reached No. 12 in the UK charts.[6] It is the first album to feature Janick Gers, Bernie Tormé having left the group during the tour of Germany in 1981. Gers came in for the rest of the tour, his first show being on 25 June 1981.
In 1989, Virgin issued the album in CD format, with the same track listing. In 2007, Edsel Demon Music Group released the album with bonus material.
"Nightmare" was covered by Lionheart on their 1984 album, Hot Tonight.
