Train by Train

Pros: -
Cons: -

It seems that I am always going backwards. I find an album that I like from a group that is not really new. I inevitably find it so charming that I move back through an artist or groups past efforts in search of more enjoyment. In the case of...

Pros: An amazingly versatile band with enormous range and inventiveness. Not a single- genre band.
Cons: None

This band tears through style after style. If you like your bands to fit in a neat little pigeonhole, this isn't the band for you. The versatile members of Train run the full gamut: bluesy, country-rock, modern rock, Beatle-esque, hard rock. The lead...

Pros: Wonderful vocals, original lyrics.
Cons: None

I must say, I was very impressed with this album. I bought it simply for "Meet Virginia" and "Free", but found myself loving every song on the CD. The songs are powerful and moving, and all have a "folk" atmosphere to them....

Pros: Good catchy songs.
Cons: Songs tend to sound the same.

A good, honest pop album, with an undeniable touch of country music. The first time i heard this album, i was surprised that it was not classified as a country album. Songs like 'Meet Virginia' and 'Free' seem to stand out from the others slightly. It's...

Pros: Great album from tracks 1-11, a nice after work cd.
Cons: "Meet Virginia" is the only song getting airplay.

I have to say that I never heard of this band before Oct, I saw them open for "Ben Folds five" and I liked what I saw. The band looked like they loved what they were doing up on stage. I knew only one of their songs in which they preformed...

Pros: not the same old pop
Cons: you have to let it grow on you

I bought this CD because I was really interested in the group's original sound after hearing "Meet Virginia" on the radio many times. Well... the single "Meet Virginia" is definitely the odd track in the CD in that it is the least...

Pros: The CD
Cons: None that i can find

Some months ago when I first heard the song Meet Virginia, I almost stopped when I heard the lyrics. Never has a song struck this cord in me. The words the music describes me so much. I knew I had to have the CD. Not only does this song strike this...

Pros: nice mellow sound
Cons: the mellow sound can get old-just put in another cd..

I picked up "Train" for Christmas because I liked the singles-"Free" and "Meet Virginia". I thought perhaps a little decency had come to new rock. I saw it on the shelves and thought what the hell, I can always sell it if it...

Pros: best new music of 1999
Cons: not for the weak eared

the hooks abound and the harmonies fly on this laid back debut set from this up and coming band from san francisco. with such hits as "meet virginia" and "free" these guys really know what music is all about. if scorching hard...

Pros: Soulful Acoustics
Cons: Under-appreciated

The upbeat acoustics and eclectic feel from the rest of the album makes the new Train album one of my favorites. It takes guts to taste the glory and while Train isn't exactly totally off the beaten track, it's been a while since we've heard this...

Pros: really good style
Cons: not enough song on the album

I bought this album after a friend played "Meet Virginia", and I have to say that I really like their unique style. Train really did a good job with this album, and "Meet Virginia" is not the only good song on the album, but it is in...

Pros: Great songs and vocals
Cons: Hardly any video exposure

I hadn't heard much about Train or their album until I saw the video for the song "Meet Virginia". I liked their sound and decided to buy their self titled debut. I couldn't be happier with it. Rob Hotchkiss's vocal remind me of the lead sing...
