Spirit Train - a haunting original tune on a 4 string

I wrote this a couple years ago but was not totally happy with some of the lyrics, so I cleaned up some of those lines and here is the updated version.

Thanks Bear & Dani, very kind of you. Yes, I would consider it folk or contemporary folk. :-)

Great job as always, Derek. Would this be considered folk? I really like it. An original Mr Rose is always a treat for the ears.

Nice!

Thanks Richard! I always try to maintain a low profile...  otherwise we get "volunteered" for more stuff we don't wanna do...  Ha! The Soul Train was a lot more groovy but I can't dance anyway! Thanks again :-)

A great little song about soul collection Derek! Another reason to keep a low profile this Halloween. Nothing grim about your singing and playing, very well done! Was the Soul Train really the Spirit  Train!
