Enjoy Train's show from the iconic and historic Royal Albert Hall in London. Multi-GRAMMY Award-winning, diamond-selling band Train is making their long-awaited return to the UK in 2024 with their debut appearance at the Hall.
Train’s highly anticipated I Know, It’s Been A Long Time Coming Tour will bring fans across the globe an epic night of music filled with the band’s most iconic hits spanning three decades. They have sold more than 10 million albums and 30 million tracks worldwide, with their No.1 best-selling smash single “Hey, Soul Sister” becoming the most downloaded single of 2010 and in 2021 achieving RIAA Diamond status. Two-time GRAMMY-nominated singer-songwriter Ilsey will join Train as support. During her career, Ilsey has collaborated with some of music’s biggest names, contributing to songs by Miley Cyrus, Beyoncé, Harry Styles, The 1975, Shawn Mendes, P!nk and many more.

Long before the automobile was widely used as a means of transport, the railroad was the symbol of freedom, independence and adventure in America. "Go west, young man" was the typical saying for anyone who wanted to try their luck as a prospector, farmer or rancher. In 1869 it was possible for the first time to cross the American continent from east to west by rail. In addition, a suitable music began to develop, which consisted of folk, blues, rockabilly and skiffle songs. These songs glorified and celebrated on the subject of the lyrics only one thing, namely the railway. It was time to dedicate a double CD to these songs.

There've been plenty of songs about cars, several songs about planes, and a fair share about trucks, but perhaps the vehicles that inspire the most tunes are trains. Certainly, Ace's 2015 compilation All Aboard! 25 Train Tracks Calling at All Musical Stations suggests as much, containing 25 train-besotted tracks from every style of popular song. The earliest song here is Cliff Carlisle's blues "Pan American Man," dating all the way back to 1937 when trains were still a major mode of transportation in the U.S., and the latest comes from 2012, when Norton Records' Daddy Long Legs delve into the frenzied raunch of "Death Train Blues."

This collection is a pair of D-Train's earliest efforts, 1983's "Music" and the following year's "Something's on Your Mind"; for better or for worse, their sound is completely a product of its era, and while some listeners will find the disc thoroughly dated, others will enjoy its nostalgic charms.
