The Yardbirds - Train Kept A Rollin'

[MrMaxtefarian]

I saw the Yardbirds perfrom this song with Jeff Beck on lead and Jimmy Page on bass - at an old skating rink with a stage elevated about one foot. Long hair, wide whale corduroys, military jackets with gold epaulets and wind milling guitar chords. Still my favorite rock and roll experience.

[Ruckweiler73]

Always enjoyed them with Beck and Jim McCarty the drummer tied it together with his playing.

[mikehowton707]

Ladies calm down you're all pretty.... listen to the music.

[TheAeroNiels]

AEROSMITH RULES !

[NormanLake1]

@TheAeroNiels  "ZERO"smith sux! Eddie never played guitar all that well, just noisy fingertapping. Roth always had an overblown voice, more of a cheerleader than a singer. Pitiful!

[Malkmusianful]

RIP Jeff Beck's guitar

it didn't deserve to die in front of all of those Mod wannabes.

[harveydents]

@Malkmusianful hahhhahahahaha love that fucking movie blow up!

[IASP17]

singing sucks completely here

[lovelife863]

[helenalvar]

@jaqand Page didn't appeared with The Yardbirds until 1967

[christianphifer]

@helenalvar Actually, Jimmy Page first appeared in The Yardbirds replacing Paul Samwell-Smith on bass around June 1966, Before switching to lead guitar Months later.

[KIDAmnesiacBends]

this is the best version, aerosmiths is good but this one gets my feet moving more....i'm sure aerosmith would agree

[MRSashabow]

best version

[lighterfluid97]

Good but. I like aero & Johnny burnette versions better

[kerth54]

Way better.

[MetalDrummer776]

never heard this, only the aerosmith one but this is much better

[DBsauce]

1965 JB on guitar..

[FelicianB]

is this recorded with Page or Beck?

[jaqand]

@FelicianB

Page plays bass

[TheStrypesOfficial]

@jaqand actually it's Paul Samwell-Smith on bass, as it was recorded around 65/66 when he was still in the band. Jeff Beck & Chris Dreja are on guitars.

[mlong1954]

@TheStrypesOfficial correcto!

[fezzie666]

@FelicianB both



[maxauburn]

Love both this version and Aerosmith's version!!

[theonlyantony]

@maxauburn What about the original?

[theonlyantony]

@theonlyantony or the Johnny Burnett version which inspired this version

[maxauburn]

@theonlyantony

Am listening to the Johnny Burnett version as I type - it's great!

[theonlyantony]

@maxauburn The tiny version is a Junp Jive classic and the Burnette version is a party banger

[maxauburn]

@theonlyantony

That is a very accurate description of both! :)

[maxauburn]

@theonlyantony

By Tiny Bradshaw? It's very good!

[toomanylesbos]

Check out Los Shains version.

El tren pasa esta noche.

[vioreeel]

This fucking song is awesome, Yardbirds and Aerosmith versions are so good, each one in their own way and moment. That one and the live version of A'smith are so damn good. Viva el rock & roll!!!

[toyomaru90]

I like it.

[kEPTreaL100]

Can we now see how what WAS will BE AGAIN !! Is Jack White the only person in music who does something called RESEARCH and then builds off his influences and strips down all he has been taught (brainwashed by POP RADIO and VIDEO) thanks for nothing MTV.

portUGUESE stoner

[jetsonic69]

YOUR RIGHT :) ITS SO SILLY , PICKING AND CHOOSING WHICH ROCK BAND HAS THE BEST VERSION OF A SONG??? ITS LIKE WHICH PIZZA THE BEST TOPPINGS..ITS STILL THE SAME OLD ROUND PIE :) SAME THING WITH ROCK N ROLL MUSIC. ITS STILL GUITARS, BASS, DRUMS AND GREAT SINGERS :)

[treesloth9]

what up tinman?

[treesloth9]

Our male society needs to get back to wearing suits at any and all occasions. In the 60's my Mom used o dress me in suits identical to the ones their wearing. Then in the 70's she dressed me in that black and white suit Tom Jones was sporting back then. God I looked good. When I wore it, I could never understand when woman thru their panties at me.

[ebf1957]

@treesloth9

I agree.

[robin56]

Thanks for this!!! How long till there was a higher quality piece here! KUDOS!

[joeyxdope]

the yardbirds are the fucking rawest

[MushroomKingdom919]

Holy fuck I love this song.

[ornitucan]

nah, i think haymarket square did a better work with this song

[gerkins1]

And it never stops, so get out of the way.

[Hugh983]

Wow I thought Steve Tylor wrote this What a dummy I am

[Eq2fanforlife]

@Hugh983 lol these guys didn't even write the song.

[pnkaoru]

良いCDコレクションですね。国内盤あったんですね。

ジミヘンのエレクトロリックレディースランド３６００円する時か­らCDと付き合っってきたけど

[TheGuitarProphet]

Who was the original group that wrote the song?

[theburdcotter]

@TheGuitarProphet Not sure who wrote it but the original, definative version was by Johnny Burnette and the Rockn Roll Trio, they recorded it in 1956 and it is complete savage rockabilly....check it out. Its on YouTube.

[Tyrol00]

@theburdcotter Yeah!

[tallpaul881]

Uh-Oh! JEFF! THAT'LL work!

[jokersblues00]

Sho Nuff IS

[jasamatazSR]

first time I heard this was watching the movie BLOW-UP (Herbie Hancock/Yardbirds) in a theater, downtown Providence in 1967... i'm an aerosmith fan so I say it just might be the song we like, version, smersion...

[HeyItsLeeThornton]

Was this the old led zeppelin?

[Olekrok]

this is the best version of the song

[barnabas50]

@Olekrok Aerosmith's version is very good, but this is definitely the best version. It's got some of the world's best guitar players ever.

[PECCEP88]

@Olekrok Well of course, it's the ORIGINAL VERSION! What an absurd observation.

[aerosmith425]

@Olekrok fuck you tiny bradshaws is oh and if we're gunna favorites by quality then aerosmiths would be the best lil cunt bitch

[Olekrok]

@aerosmith425 i don't give a fuck what you think, and i can't understand what you are trying to say. but you obviously ride aerosmith's dick

[aerosmith425]

@Olekrok im sorry that i have ears

[NormanLake1]

@Olekrok Why the fuck does Zerosmith even come up? Just because they did a tepid version of "Train"? They SUCK!

[cfhscheer]

I like Aerosmith's version better.

[Olekrok]

is jimmy page playing bass in this ?

[lyingcheatinghurting]

@Olekrok No.

[KIDAmnesiacBends]

i still think this is the best version

[tylertoon2]

people shouldn't fight about rock like this it's like fighting about pizza toppings no matter what choice you make it's still very good and has something to like unless you have no sense of taste

[XEpikurX]

@tylertoon2

Very true!!!!

[rytterytter]

@tylertoon2 lamest analogy ever lol

[bubbazep01]

I wish Led Zeppelin recorded their original version from '68; that would be a heluva bootleg...

[treesloth9]

my kids and i are being hipsters look you should see little jacobs moves

[wherestheunity]

stroll on is heavier

[KroosGuinda]

This is for me the best version of the song!!... Authentic Rock and roll!!

[hoppybhoy71]

@KroosGuinda listen to the wee irish lass imelda may singing this,she is great..

[draconian690]

MOTHERFUCKING YES!

I don't understand why people fight over whose cover is the best they're all great

its all a matter of opinion. Aerosmith's version is the one I heard first but my favorite will always be motorhead's

[JWwriting]

i truely believe the guitar solo in aerosmith's version was way better than all of the version......Joe perry is legend

[thejrace]

@JWwriting Joe Perry didn't even play on aerosmiths version. Very common knowledge that dick wagner and steve hunter played the guitars on that.

[notmygeneration]

@Thepast2012 sorry haha. I can't remember what I was saying

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

@Gcrash95 Lol no.

Motorhead is the farthest thing from trash. They are every rocker's, every metalhead's, every punk's dream band. People who think they're trash or anything other than great and one of the most influential bands ever doesn't know anything.

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

Fuck Aerosmith.

Motorhead's cover is best.

[barnabas50]

Aerosmith did a great cover of this song, but the Yardbirds version is the best one.

[yungsu100]

ORIGINAL COMPOSER IS TINY BRADSHAW YOU CAN FIND HIS VERSION IN HERE IS BIT MORE JAZZY.

[Oudler]

I believe the original was done by Johnny Burnette. It has been covered by many since.

[kerth54]

If aerosmith had to compete with the Beatles and the Stones you would have never heard of them. Aerosmith's bass on train kept rolling is weak, same with come together.

[familytunes1]

now come on boys & girls let us appreciate a band that has produced the who's who of power guitar gods along side mayalls these guys should get nothing less than respect and they are a few levels ahead of aerosmith

[dirtynuke]

Aerosmith suck ass. Don't mention them.

[darkhell227]

@dirtynuke you suck more ass aerosmith all the way

[dirtynuke]

@darkhell227 oh fuck off with your horse shit. everyone knows that steven tyler cat is just a phony mick jagger wannabe. Strutting on stage, with that phony poutty lip move? puke. puke.Yardbirds kick aerosmiths ass, any fucking day, my friend, it's been proven.

[darkhell227]

@dirtynuke aerosmith is more known than yardbirds bitch

[dirtynuke]

@darkhell227 yeah. And Justin bieber is more famous then both their asses combined. Fame and who deserves to be famous are two different things,my friend.

Besides we all know the yardbirds came up with the tune to begin with. So tell me how does a guy strutting on stage, emulating himself like some sort of Mick Jagger the second, and covering some other bands song, in the most dreadful way, give him any credit to having one fucking ounce of talent? It doesn't. And your point is asshole?

[notmygeneration]

@dirtynuke wow. Steven Tyler is a fantastic musician. He has an amazing range vocally, still does. In my opinion he is a better singer than Mick

[Grizzlism]

@dirtynuke

you didnt even reply to anyone with that comment, pussy

[dirtynuke]

@Grizzlism Gee asshole thats a real smartass thing to say. What the fuck do you care about a comment I make on youtube? I dont owe you shit, and I clearly was not talking to you. I don't give a horses ass who you are, or what you think. Do I even know you? Dont think so dickhead. Now do yourself a favor and FUCK OFF.

[Grizzlism]

@dirtynuke

Oo, caps. How intimidating.

You're shitting on a great band who deserves recognition, and Steve Tyler is more than that and he's proved it both as a vocalist and song-writer. Now, I understand that whores such as yourself get a bleeding twat every so often, but don't be mad at me for being such a pussy who can't get any.

[aerosmithfan11]

Aerosmith is most known for this song!!!!!!

[cornholio530]

good god this song is awesome
