This Time It's for Real was the second album by seminal New Jersey Rock/R&B band Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. Like their first album I Don't Want To Go Home this album features a number of guest artists and duets, a trend that would be dropped for their next album Hearts of Stone. "Check Mr. Popeye" features Kenny 'Popeye' Pentifallo on vocals with The Coasters on background vocals. The track "First Night" features The Satins on background vocals and Steven Van Zandt on duet vocals. "Little Girl So Fine" features background vocals by The Drifters.[2][3] The album also features a cover of Aretha Franklin's "Without Love".
