The latest Asbury Park artist signed to a major label is former Deal Casino mastermind Joe P. on Atlantic Records. Throughout their reign, Deal Casino, which Joe had fronted since eighth grade, was one of New Jersey's best bands.

Many of the 11 songs were co-written with former Deal Casino band mates and a few of the tracks include their drummer, Christopher Donofrio. A few other musicians, mainly drummers, also appear on the LP, but Joe plays most of the instruments, including drums on some tracks.
