that was awesome, i actually got chills through that and the only other person to do that to me was Ben Harper singing I Shall Not Walk Alone with The Blind Boys of Alabama. Just wish the sound quality was better, but big thumbs up!
when we cover a song, sometimes we capture the original (if we understood it), sometimes we capture something all our own (if it hit home), and here you did both.
Golden, Beautiful and Flawless on a song that can't be easy to sing and play at the same time. You two have to be very proud of this one and if Ricki Lee ever caught wind of this....she'd be beaming I suspect. :)
Thanks so much! I really hope Rickie Lee does see this some day! We actually play this at basicaly every concert we play, It's one of our set starters!
Superb, what a beautiful cover of a classic RLJ arrangement, complicated and subtle. Joe and Ellen, you honour RLJ and a song, that after all these years, remains to be one of my all time faves. Please, tell us, what is the tuning on the 6 string... and keep up the the great work, dont let Night Train fade away.
hi ya Joe and Ellen. I'm doing a similar thing to you guys.There was a guy who came to Australia from Houston .. shot some footage and popped it on YouTube. Have a look at...... retriofit
Hiya, greetings from the netherlands this is 1 of me favorite songs bij RLJ i think yous doing a fantastic job covering this song well done and ellen you've got a great voice,
Greetings from Iceland....still listening after all this time :) You should also post your wonderful music in here. Youtube is one of the best platforms you could use, so please be so kind to share songs like "Lily Scent", "Autumn's Reign", "Lose you" and my fav "Dark Within Your Heart" :) Still five minutes to fame, but almost there. Take care. BT
Well heck, glad to hear from you. I think I remember you making contact with us back in the old days. Just so you know, we're getting ready to put out a new CD and put up a new website. We'll definitely be posting some original stuff on youtube as well. Thanks so much for stopping by, and do indeed stay in touch. I have to say, I've always wanted to go to Iceland! How is it up there?
This has been a favorite song of mine for almost thirty years and it is one I hold very near and dear to my heart. I have been a musician and a singer all my life. That was a flawless redidtion....and having heard you both do it I know you feel the same way about that song as I. Thank you
I just love your version of Night Train.

Wow! This is great!
Do you mind if I mention that when he joins in it kind of throws it off a bit?
Otherwise, it's really great to see such a cool version especially since the one of her doing it live is difficult to hear.
Thanks for posting it.

Yes, definitely. Deeply meaningful song for me. That first moment the bass kicks in just stirs the soul. Thanks for listening.

Absolutely fantastic! You have such a good voice. You sound remarkably like Ricki Lee Jones - scary!
Great tight playing, you compliment each other by playing together.
Anyway, well done to both of you for a superb rendition of a classic song. Thanks for posting it.
