 (28 Customer Reviews)
Josh Turner seems to belong to a generation of country singers debuting in the late-1990s/early 2000s who were influenced by the middlebrow New Traditionalism of artists like Randy Travis and George Strait in the '80s. Accordingly, Turner's first offering, LONG BLACK TRAIN, strikes an uneasy bargain with Nashville commerciality, while making strides for the sound of "hard" country in the mainstream arena. It's no accident that some of the most successful songs here are the ones Turner wrote on his own, particularly the Johnny Cash-like title track where he gets to show off his resonant baritone. Even the most sentimental ballads never descend into treacly overproduction though, and Turner's honest, straightforward approach carries him through his debut with graceful aplomb.
Recorded at The Sound Kitchen, Franklin, Tennessee; Thelma's East and Ocean Way Nashville, Nashville, Tennessee.
Personnel includes: Josh Turner (vocals); Bryan Sutton (acoustic & baritone guitar, banjo); Brent Rowan (guitar); Steve Hinson (steel guitar); Aubrey Haynie (mandolin, fiddle); Charlie McCoy (harmonica); Steve Nathan (piano); Eric Darken (vibraphone, percussion); Kevin Grant (upright bass); Shannon Forrest (drums); Wes Hightower, Russell Terrell, Lisa Cochran (background vocals); The Nashville String Machine.

Great new voice in country music
I listened to this CD from beginning to end. There wasn't a bad song on it. Long Black Train makes me want to stand up and sing! If you like Randy Travis, you'll love Josh Turner. The best songs on the CD are the ones Josh wrote or co-wrote. I hope there will be more of his music out soon!

| | Vangelis Chariots Of Fire CD (1982) SDTK
Long Black Train CD music
$6.55
While only serious film buffs are likely to recall Hugh Hudson's role as the director of the Oscar-winning CHARIOTS OF FIRE, the Greek composer Vangelis became, and remained, a household name with his soundtrack for the 1981 film. At the time, the theme song was parodied as being excessively saccharin.
Indeed, with titles such as "Five Rings" and "100 Metres," the album wears its Olympian heart on its sleeve. Nonetheless, CHARIOTS OF FIRE is often a brooding work, and if the prevailing memory of this album is one of slow-motion runners and heady triumph, Vangelis's synthesizer work often conveys a ...

Long Black Train music CDs
$15.05
Probably the most atypical release of Terry Allen's career, Amerasia is the soundtrack to a little-seen 1987 film by the European documentary maker Wolf-Eckart Buhler about American soldiers who stayed in Southeast Asia after the Vietnam War. To record the album, Allen traveled to Cambodia and recorded with a local rock band called Caravan (not, obviously, the English progressive rockers of the same name), both in the studio and at a live gig deep ...
| | Porcupine Tree On The Sunday Of Life CD (1992) Digipak
Long Black Train songs
$11.19 
Porcupine Tree's debut is really one big in-joke, which actually makes for a better reason to record something that pretends to be profoundly deep through and through. As released, it doesn't make mention of the tracks' origins as the supposed product of a mysterious cult psych/prog rock band, but the packaging and artwork (even the fonts) would make the Dukes of Stratosphear proud. Steve Wilson's singing is noticeably higher at points than it would be in later years -- chalk it up to his relative youth or a desire to sound appropriately ...
