Jim & Jesse - 1976 - Golden Rocket

[robyfox2]

Great Song. I have the album Train Songs...or Songs About Trains...something like that. My fav from that album is a song called Streamline Cannonball. Anybody know where I can find it on You Tube.

@robyfox2 That Depends, What version? With what Artist?

[robyfox2]

@288jh I'd love to find the Jim and Jesse version that is on the album.

[288jh]

@robyfox2 Honestly, I don't have that version However i have a version by the NS lawmen

[robyfox2]

@288jh Never heard of them, but I'd be interested in hearing it.

I'm german for me this is the best music that was ever made in the USA .

[fast1leta]

THAT'S the version I was looking for. This is awesome.

Gosh, I miss Jim McReynolds.

[docsavage98]

correction...Jesse is on the mandolin and Jim on guitar

[MOLLYryaiMOON]

I think Jim McReynolds is handsome. A comment from a 14 year old!

HEAVEN !

[Strahli]

damn this music is the best ever

[bth2458]

Their vocal harmonies swirl above and beyond any bluegrass ever, but their instrumental foundation makes it all work even better.

@bth2458 I hope we can still here that old time bluegrass music. I hope they don't try changing it like they did country music.

Love this song. I had the LP of Jim & Jessie's "I Like Trains". There was a great song on it called "The Streamline Cannonball" Wish I could find it.

I grew up in Kentucky and I can't believe I've never heard this song before. I looked up the lyrics and it's got to be one of the coolest train songs ever! (Of course, Jim & Jesse could sing "Happy Birthday" and make it sound cool!)

[cyrus621]

@Zagathon7 Listen to the original by the author, Hank Snow, and you will like it even more.

[bpbrant]

they don´t make them like that anymore ...

[fgrod]

First saw them on their old TV show in late 60's. Then 1st live show in '70 at a mobile home outlet in Houston on a flat bed trailer with Vic Jordan on banjo. Geez I wish I would have recorded that.

Good version of a song by Canadian Wilf Carter.

[biscaynepass]

Jim and Jesse were the best bluegrass group ever. Hope you have more songs you can post.Thanks
