Also recorded by the Rolling Stones about 40 years later.



Don't forget the Chattanooga Choo Choo.

Too good Skid, that harmonica player.



Trust Cisco for an eclectic take on the train theme, well done. But i can't find a train reference in this one? Stratocaster Cam! just when you thought you'd seen all the GoPro angles.

So to follow on from Train's masterful introduction of the Ukulele

Glad you liked it. That version of Green Onions is a brainsnapper as are all the numbers they recorded at Daryl Hall's house.

A TRAIN reference in this one with Joe Cocker on vocals, Leon Russel on piano and Bobby Keys (the sixth Rolling Stone) on sax.
