NME reports that 'Ya Know?' will feature 17 tracks, including 'Rock & Roll Is the Answer', 'New York City' and 'Waiting for That Railroad'.

Due to be released on 17 May in the US, the album contains material which Ramone had written for the Ramones and for his own solo projects.

New overdubs on the album have been provided by Joan Jett, Steven Van Zandt from Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, Richie Ramone, and members of Cheap Trick.

"We got friends who were really friends of Joey," says album producer Ed Stasium of the overdubs, which were recorded in New York in 2010.
