Honky Tonk Train

Songwriter: Meade Lux Lewis
Publisher: Shapiro Bernstein & Co, Inc.

The first of two instrumentals David Maxwell plays, this one is relentless from the first note. It takes a great, soulful player like Maxwell to do justice to Meade Lux Lewis and Maxwell lives up to it, bringing the audience to a new plateau of excitement. Drummer Candy McDonald drives the train forward with his propulsive beat.
