Fans of General Hospital, always love when James performs at the Nurses Ball’ but now here, Stuart delivers several original songs with his unique vocal style that make it unmistakable JPS.
Check out a preview of the album below.
Now, let us know if you will be adding “Clean Slate” to your playlists and more via the comment section below.
I have to say, they have found the perfect screen partner for Finola Hughes. They definitely have chemistry. He’s a very good singer too!
They deleted my previous comment wishing J.P.S well on his new album, but also warning him off Anna. She’s a very nice person but her relationships have not worked out so well.
I wish I DID like this pairing, Violet, but I just don’t feel it. I liked Valentin with Nina and that’s about it. With Anna, he seems like a high school science geek drooling over the head cheerleader. It’s not a good look.
Soaphound
I agree, that’s why I was warning him off Anna. As I said, she’s a nice person but has that black widow spider vibe going and we all know what they do to their mate. Actually, I can’t see him with anyone but Nina. I also can’t wait to see that whole mess explode, and hopefully Valentin sees Sonny in N.Y and they all come back to P.C Iam sure a lot of us will be dissappointed who ends up with whom.
Violet and Soaphound…I figure Anna and especially Valentin can get caught up in the moment and have temporary romantic feelings. And like Soaphound said, he may be acting out on his unfulfilled romance with Anna way back when. But I can only see Anna with Duke or Robert, and Valentin with Nina. As for Nina, she’s hop skipped around since coming to Port Charles, never settling long term with any one guy. Strangely I like her with “Mike,” but this will be doomed by her lie of omission when Sonny gets his memory back. And for Sonny, of course the Carly/Jason drama waiting for him when he gets back home. But who knows… maybe he will remember he was a better and happier man as Mike with Phyliss and Lenny as true friends, and forgive Nina. Can he incorporate Mike and bad boy Sonny together? Jason will go back to Brit. And Carly…I don’t care.

I have mixed feelings concerning Valentin.I like him sometimes and others, not so much, depending on what he’s up to. Iam kind of liking him and Brook Lynn now,and waiting for how terrible it will be when he finds out that baby is not his.I do not like he and Anna as a couple.
Oh Rose, can’t you just hear Carly’s clumping shoes when she confronts Nina? And then she’ll proceed to ban her from ever seeing Wiley again. No doubt Nina will then need to get the courts involved. Such drama! I’m so fed up with this stupid “secret” of why Carly and Jason are getting hitched. Spinelli can figure it out but Michael, Jax, Josslyn, Monica, Britt, and especially Super Sleuth Sam are clueless. Right.
I suspect this album isn’t the only way old Val has been keeping busy lately. I think he’s the one who took Heiny’s body out of the freezer & stashed it somewhere.
Val was completely in charge of the Cassadine “empire” for a few years, while Nikolas was playing dead (and before he found out he wasn’t Mikkos’ kid after all). During that time, I’m sure he read up on all of Helena’s secret projects over the years, which would have included the not-so-secret basement laboratory at GH.
Val was obviously very suspicious about what Heiny was up to, during his last weeks up there on your side of Earth’s crust, and he seemed to be hanging around GH during a lot of that time, while “coincidentally” you have a patient (Chase) with some bizzare “mystery illness”. Val – as both a former spy and as a Helena offspring – knows something is up with that! Perhaps he might have even assumed Heiny was using the basement lab himself. Which wouldn’t have been out of the question, since he has a track record of doing business with Helena in the past. Given the level of dust & cobwebs in the basement, this would prove to be a false assumption, of course. But there’s still a working freezer down there….. now what could that be used for?
And of course, should Heiny suddenly disappear from the planet, Val might think Anna was resposnible for his disappearance. So when he removed Heiny’s body from the freezer, he did so, believing he was “protecting” Anna. Will he admit to her that he has the body, once he realizes she had nothing to do with Heiny’s death??
Love your theory but I always thought those freezers could not be opened from the inside.
Well, now that you mention it, I never saw anybody lock or unlock the freezer with a key, so it might not have ever been locked. But no, Heiny is still in Hell, so his body didn’t get up out of the freezer and walk away.
Val acted liked he was totally shocked when Anna told him the story, so maybe it wasn’t him – as he would have no reason to lie to Anna about it now. So if it wasn’t him, who would be likely to mess around with secret labs & dead bodies.
Faison & Helena are also both still dead and here in Hell, so it’s not them. Only two suspects seem likely, that being the case.
Liesel Obrecht – she might have taken Heiny’s body just to make sure he was dead, but also to do some of her own brand of mad scientist research on the corpse, thinking she could work on a cure for Huntington’s Disease, as Heiny would be a likely genetic match for Britch.
The other suspect would be Anna’s twin sister Alex. Most mortals assume she’s dead. I don’t, because she never came to Hell (and she definitely would not have gone the other direction) The cameras to the basement were off at the time, and if Alex was picked up on security video anywhere else in the hospital, nobody would question it, and just assume it was Anna, who seems to visit the building at least once a week, for any number of reasons.
How she would have removed Heiny from the basement… that’s a whole other story. But remember, there IS another way out of that lab. During the original lab story some 20 years ago, Stavros left through a trap door in the floor which Luke & the others who were after him assumed was some sort of “bottomless pit”. Since Stavros did end up as a popsicle again, it must have been a long way down. At least then. But if Helena could build the entire lab unseen directly underneath a busy hospital, then she (or somebody affiliated with her) might have just have easily built a new escape tunnel which connects with that trap door.
So whether it’s Liesl, Alex, or some unseen Cassadine family member, it’s possible that somebody took Heiny’s body out through a tunnel that’s underneath the sub basement. And where would such a tunnel go? Well, if anybody affiliated with the Cassadines built it, that would probably mean it joined up with those old catacombs that somehow manage to stay intact underneath whatever body of water it is that surrounds Spoon Island, and end somewhere right around the Windemere stables.
Nikolas is living in the old family homestead again, so you would think that he would notice if he had uninvited guests running around the estate…. or possibly taking up space in his own freezer, in Heiny’s case. But then, he’s been way too distracted worrying about his divorce and the fact that Shawn Butler is now out of prison & looking to nail the person who put him there…. which of course was Nick himself.
Satan, Wow,Wow and Wow you covered it all especially Alex. I never believed she died, and that was mostly because Anna was so adamant that she had killed her. So, my money is on her.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob
This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, new and old motivations come into play with dangerous consequences. According to the just released GH video spoilers video for the week of August 3-7, a bailiff calls out, “All rise!”
Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.
Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael. She tells her, “Pick out your most seductive suit.” Soon, we see Serena in her bathing suit at the Metro Court face to face with Michael.
Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills.

Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. Is this how she stops her, or is Jacinda up to old tricks and wants to frame Willow? Remember when Jacindsa drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison)? Stay tuned.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80
Vincent Pastore, best known for his memorable role as Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos has passed away.
The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.
As well as his role on The Sopranos, many soap fans will recall he played multiple smaller roles on the beloved One Life to Live from 1995 and 2004. However, in 2008, he landed the short-term role as Maximus Giambetti on General Hospital.
PASTORE WANTED TO BE ON GENERAL HOSPITAL
Maximus was the mobster father of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) bodyguards: Max (Derk Cheetwood) and Milo (Drew Cheetwood)
According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”
Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.
Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.
In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.
Pastore is survived by his daughter, Renee, son-in-law and granddaughter.
