Hello and welcome to the world of the Trainiac! Im not sure about songs that are not on albums - but one thing you might want to check out is the solo album done by Pat - I haven't really listened to it, although I have all other Train albums. So, Ive been thinking I need to check it out.

Welcome to the best band ever :) Did you buy the Alive At Last live EP album? That has some really good songs on it. It also shows the fun that the band has on stage :) And make sure you get Pat's solo album, Last of Seven. It's amazing! A song that I love that isn't on an album is Should We Believe. It was on a Hawaii 5-0 episode. And don't miss out on To Be Loved. As far as I know it's only available as a bonus track on iTunes. Enjoy :)

You might also want to check out the DVD the band did with Martina McBride called CMT Crossroads.  It shows the band's versatility and Pat's amazing range vocally.  Other bands have done similar projects on this show but I think you'd enjoy it.  I know I did.  Got my copy on Amazon, if I remember correctly.  Welcome to the club of great Train fans!

Welcome Paul.  You will love the rest of the studio albums.  They are far and away better than CA37.  They show more complex song writing and a real edge, which CA37 has none of.  I do wish Train (OK, Pat) would write songs with the band again, instead of writing with outside writers like he did for the new CD.  Too many fluffy pop songs on the CD and a few songs really make your cringe.(geared toward a younger crowd, and that's where the money is) But if you like it, that's cool too.  Give us your opinion after you hear them.  Many import CD singles have bonus cuts, so look out for them.  Also, get the Japan import of My Private Nation, as it has a bonus cut. And be sure to get Pat's great solo album.

I am listening to the Itunes Session by Train now. It's got a few acustic songs on it that are on the albums but it's a nice change and you can really hear the vocals in them. I'd recommend that too.

Hi gaucho91 - I was just about to reply to your post but see its been deleted! (Not sure if done by you or site admin?).

Yes I think it's fair to say that there's been a shift in style by Train over the years, the newer songs have a much more commercial feel to them.

I've recently received my copy of the 1st album and to be honest it's probably my least favourite (although it does contain a few songs that I quite like). SMSF and CA37 are my favourites and I agree that they are very different to the early stuff.
