The train song countdown continues. Number 47 is Funky Soul Train by Hank Ballard…
I like this cut a lot. You may know that Hank Ballard was responsible for The Twist.
Back in the 80’s Hank Ballard and the Midnighters came to Toronto and played the Horseshoe Tavern. It was quite a night. The place was packed. Ballard brought a full band including a horn section. They had great outfits and a little choreography happening and they were a hot band. The Horseshoe was hot that night too. I recall it being one sweaty night.
