Train Kept a Rollin'

-

"Train Kept A-Rollin" is a song written by Tiny Bradshaw, Howard Kay, and Lois Mann. Bradshaw first recorded the song as a jump blues in 1951—his best known recording. After a rock and roll version of the song was recorded and released by Johnny Burnette and the Rock and Roll Trio in 1956, numerous other versions have been recorded. The Trio's version, considered a rockabilly classic, is an upbeat, high energy version of the original, with lead guitarist Paul Burlison playing what many consider to be the first introduction of the contemporary fuzz tone guitar sound.

Many Bands have recorded this most notably the Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin. The most outrageous version is from the soundtrack of the movie "Twins" where Jeff Becks group is the bar band in the background of one scene... check it out!
