To You All is the second studio album by the Swiss hard rock band Krokus, released in 1977, through Schnoutz.[1]

The line-up of Krokus changed radically from their debut album as founding members Chris von Rohr and Tommy Kiefer were joined by Fernando von Arb, Jürg Naegeli, and Freddy Steady, previously active as a trio under the name Montezuma.[4] It was the first album to feature the Krokus logo on the cover and their first video clip was shot for "Highway Song". To You All had limited success in Switzerland.[4]
