Template:Music ratings Casino is the third studio album by Blue Rodeo. It was drummer Mark French's only album with the band. It was produced by Dwight Yoakam guitarist Pete Anderson.<ref name=":0">Template:Cite journal</ref> Clocking in at 37 minutes and 19 seconds in length, Casino was Blue Rodeo's shortest studio album until the release of A Merrie Christmas to You in 2016.

"Trust Yourself," "After the Rain," and, most significantly, "Til I Am Myself Again" were notable hit singles from the album. The album was the ninth-best selling Cancon album in Canada of 1990,<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> despite only being available for the last month of the year.
