Casino is the 1997 follow-up to the album Physical Therapy, and revolves around a casino theme which influences some instrumentation and the name of each track. As the second studio album of Physical Therapy, it features sixteen more minutes of material than its predecessor. It is seemingly, at present, their last foray into commercial music. [1] In 1998, "Casino" and "A Night at the Palace" were used on The Weather Channel's local forecast segment. [2]
Specific credits are, all tracks were written by the combined efforts of Terrance Coleman, Michael Fitzgerald, Ben Monroe, and Brian White. Except where noted "Evening Tide" was written by Kent McVey. "Hit Me" was also co-written with Kent McVey.
Unlike the previous album Physical Therapy, specific instrumentalist credits are not provided for each track. However, it is unlikely that the band members shifted roles in the few years between albums; these credits from the first album should denote what each band member played. [3]
In addition, several special guests made contributions to Casino.
All music was digitally recorded. This album was recorded at The chapel, St. Louis, Missouri. It was mastered by "Sammy", from Global Sound Mastering. Ben Monroe did primary engineering and mixing. Artwork, special effects, layout and design was done by Pen & Pixel Graphics, Inc. Elcardo's Photography Studio "Hitman the Master" took the pictures of the band members. Back tray card design was done by Grenn Grillo, who previously contributed the 3D art for the first album. The album was released under the Sweatshop Records label; feedback was encouraged to be written to Sweatshop Records, P.O. Box 150299, St. Louis, Missouri 63115.
