Looks like a Soviet knockoff of a 70s album cover.

Whenever "Steal Away" by Robbie Dupree pops up I immediately recall clips from This Week In Baseball of Rickey Henderson, Vince Coleman, and Tim Raines swiping 2nd base.

For my money the best yacht rock song is Jay Ferguson’s “Thunder Island”.

However his most famous composition will likely always be the theme song to The Office (US).

Ferguson was also the lead singer for the old rock band, Spirit, best known for their song, “I got a line on you”.

or Stairway to Heaven if you want to believe Randy California's allegation that Page stole his riff from Taurus.
