Guest Tommy Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Was this record ever released? If so then what was label did it come out on and what was the b-side? I'd much appreciate any help.
Jason S Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) On the flip of Come On Train on NUVJ ...sounds like they took the blueprint from 'Rainy Night in Georgia'! Edited June 5, 2008 by J-Brew
Guest Tommy Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 On the flip of Come On Train on NUVJ Thanks J-brew. Well thats strange. I have 2 Monarch test press' here of 'Train start moving" with "Come back home to me" on the b-side. Was this ever released with these 2 sides?
Guest Tommy Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I've attached pictures of the 2 test press' i have. One is blank. The other states the title + Don Thomas himself wrote "my second release" on the "Train start moving" side. Both are the same record.
Guest Tommy Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Also, just for interest, i have his first release too that was also his personal copy (not a test press)...

Guest Darks Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Anyone? I would say yes cause I've seen it. A friend got a copy of ebay a few years ago. Can't remember the label but think it was yellow. I thought it was interesting as it had no connection with "come on train". I would say it is quite obscure. Great side. Sorry I can't be more specific! Regards Alan

Yes it must be pretty rare, i can't recall ever seeing one. Both sides are quite good actually. I'm wondering if it came out on PMRC then as with his first release? It's a possibility as you remember the label being yellow.
Steve G Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Also, just for interest, i have his first release too that was also his personal copy (not a test press)... Fantastic record which gets plays here at the more discerning venues.
Guest Tommy Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Hi Tommy, I saw on soulsource that you were asking about Don Thomas Train Start Moving. I have it on a 45 on a yellow label called Cal State Music. number cs3202A, the title on this release is actually slightly different, its Train Keep Moving, the flip is Please Come Back Home. There's a date 6-73. Sorry to contact you this way but I'm not a member of soul source. If you get this info please post it up on soul source for anybody else who's interested, and then I'll know you got it, cheers john pugh. Thanks a lot John!, e-mailed you back mate.
