You gotta hand it to Mark Salling. He's not the "Glee" cast member you'd most expect to have landed a record deal. But maybe he's just too closely associated with Puck, his underachieving jock-slash-"Glee"-nerd alter-ego.

Salling tweeted the news the other day: "Wanted to tell u all myself, my solo record PIPE DREAMS drops 10/12! So grateful for all your support..."

No word on whether "Pipe Dreams" includes any "Glee"-style mashups.
