Re: martin amis - night train (versions of night train)
Anyone have any recommendations for versions of the song "Night Train" other than the oscar peterson or james brown versions. I'm trying to put together a collection of these songs to go along with martin Amis' novel of the same name for a gift to a friend (the main character talks about a collection of her own creation with Georgie Fame, James Brown, Oscar Peterson). thanks in advance for any suggestions nathan

Nathan: Jimmy Forest had the orginal hit. His version is on a Delmark - United reissue called , I think, Night Train Rusty Bryant had a hit with NT on Dot, or something like that--long OOP -- but he did rerecord a good version for Prestige on an LP which may or may not be reissued as part of his the Acid Jazz series CD. Forest recorded NT again for I think Palo Alto (CRT??) with Shirley Scott on organ. Hope this helps, Ken Waxman --- ericksna@umich.edu wrote: > Anyone have any recommendations for versions of the
