Well, :-) it may be hard for some of you to believe this is the same girl who did the Jazz CD, but it is! We were going to record this song originally in NYC, but it was always contingent on whether or not I would get the money. We kept putting it off, because I did not have the money. Then, a wonderful surprise came about--I had the opportunity to not only save money but work with the best players in bluegrass and country music, as Scott Coney put together a smokin band for a funky rendition of This Train is Bound for Glory. I had the time of my life, and the players blew me away. Thank you Randy and Ashley Kohrs, Tim Crouch, Scott Coney, Jay Weaver and Scat Springs who sang background vocals with Randy. The photos of me in black were taken by Eli McFadden to pay tribute to The Man in Black, whose rendition inspired me to record it. I took the photos of TN, and misc photos were taken at Slack Key Studio. Though the other songs on my latest CD are much more contemporary, this was a nice and fitting surprise as the ending song of my CD Im the Girl I Used to Know Again since I was raised listening to my grandfather playing bluegrass music on guitar and mandolin in the mountains of East TN. youtu.be/m7sV2V6csc0
