Hey Brothers! And Sisters! Ready for another dose of that Damn Yankees pride?! Join the gang this week as we stumble into something that you may have never tried, and that is DAMN YANKEES vinyl! Many out there do not realize that the 2 Damn Yankees releases in the early 1990’s were BOTH released on vinyl! Are you a little clueless on all the DY variants out there, well you don’t have to worry, help is on the way! We cover the self-titled 1990 release and the 1992 follow-up “Don’t Tread”. We display stuff from England, Germany, Japan, and some others! So we basically got vinyl from the East, vinyl from the West, and some from when the wall came tumblin’ down! And in the more recent years, when it comes to vinyl, the kids are ready to roll! With the resurgence of vinyl, the Damn Yankees record has been reissued a few times, multiple colors and as a gatefold! And we close the episode with an “unboxing” of the 2 new Damn Yankees vinyl releases Friday Music Records in both Red and Gold vinyl! Listen to the audio if you don’t have time to see me. And you don’t have to take time to thank me…for this great DY vinyl info. All I ask is that you smile when you say “Damn Yankee”!
