 Rating:  - It's Got Heart!!The Melbourne (Aust) based Production Company recently revived 'Damn Yankees' for an all too brief season. This CD has a feeling very similar to that captured by the outstanding performances in Melbourne.

But it has sterling sound quality and is one of the few cast albums that almost allows you to understand the story just via the songs. It's also a must buy due to the vocal pyrotechnics of Jarrod Emick. Emick's range and power are stunning. He literally blasts onstage as the younger incarnation of Shoeless Joe Jackson.
