Album Notes Train: Pat Monahan (vocals); Jimmy Stafford (guitar); Brandon Bush (keyboards); Johnny Colt (bass guitar); Scott Underwood (drums). Recording information: Southern Tracks, Atlanta, Georgia. San Francisco-based outfit Train have garnered a rabidly devoted following with their easy, freewheeling sound, which combines catchy hooks with the muscle of classic FM and the polish of contemporary mainstream rock. Train's 2004 live album helped summarize the band's career to that point by showcasing their instrumental chops, their confidence as performers, and the scores of crowd-pleasing tunes from albums like DROPS OF JUPITER and MY PRIVATE NATION. 2006's FOR ME, IT'S YOU will not disappoint Train's fans. In fact, the group's sunny, singalong melodies are sharper than ever here, as the album's lead-off tracks--the downtempo, alternately pulsing and soaring "All I Wanted" and the chiming pop of "Get Out"--demonstrate. Strains of piano, light strings, and vocal harmonies are seamlessly integrated into the traditional rock instrumentation on wistful tunes like "Cab," while anthemic rockers like "Am I Reaching You Now" inspire upheld lighters. On the whole, FOR ME, IT'S YOU shows Train improving on their highly successful formula with ever-sharper songwriting.
Editorial Reviews 3 stars out of 5 -- What makes FOR ME, IT'S YOU Train's strongest set of tracks to date is that the songs here sound more than just professional -- they sound surprisingly lived-in and earthy. Rolling Stone
