Is it the''High and Inside''titled album?If it is,in my opinion is one of the best power pop albums of late 70s.Led by Jon Tiven(Big Star fanatic}and owner of Trod Nossel Studios,Yankees described with their sound what was ''hip'' in that time-Power Rock,Arena pop and a bit of Rootsy folk.A lot of guests in this album like Ivan Kraal(Voidoids),Roger C Reale,Alex Chilton,Dan Hartman and fellow power popers Van Duren and Hilly Michaels.The Label was Big Sound.You will really enjoy it.

Are these the guys that did "Take It Like A Man"? If so it should be good.
