Summer/Fall 1999 

One of the songs on the CD, Vanessa, was re-recorded to "Brenda", to fit in a short storyline that Johnny P. wrote for daytime soap opera General Hospital. Johnny P.  wanted to try to get his band NYB on the show for a couple of episodes. The idea was that NYB was on tour passing through Port Charles and had a show at Lukes Place. Since Johnny P. is known as "The Wise Guy of Rock-n-Roll" it would be a good idea to write that in the story line, gangster by day, Rock-n-Roller by night. Johnny was supposed to be one of Sonny Corinthos business partners, who is played by Maurice Benard.

Then while NYB is performing at Lukes Place, Johnny see's Brenda who is played by Vanessa Marcil and falls in love with her at first sight, then writes a song for her, and performs it the next night, thinking that he will never see her again.
