Leave it to Honneger! Thanks for that.
Train
Remember the train in Dr. Zhivago? Cold, dark, threatening. How different than our nostalgic view especially reflected in popular music. I am starting a playlist with trains as the theme.
(any thoughts as to Classical's seemingly empty references?)
My first five...please augment.
It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It takes a Train to Cry.
Garfield and Scaggs version.
China Cat Sunflower Europe 72
The City of New Orleans Arlo Guthrie
Rose of Cimarron Poco
Take the A Train Duke Ellington (Any version suggestions?)

I like the Holly Cole cover of "Train Song", but I think the live version from her "Best of" album is even better than the studio version. Check it out...... Holly Cole - "Train Song" - Live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-TqQLXiHh4 |
Adrian Belew - "The Rail Song" from his album "Twang Bar King" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USfzF-4QphQ There is also a great acoustic version on his album - "The Acoustic Adrian Belew", but I couldn't find it on youtube. |
