Apart from helping out with production on Springsteen albums, he worked with his "other band", Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, as well as with Ronnie Spector and Gary U.S. Bonds, before he launched his own solo career as Little Steven.
Osim što je pomagao pri produkciji Springsteenovih albuma, radio je sa svojim drugim sastavom, Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, kao i s Ronniejem Spectorom i Gary U.S. Bondsom, prije nego što je započeo vlastiti samostalni projekt Little Steven.
