I was not familiar with the J-Train Blues Band before this year’s Memphis Music and Heritage Festival downtown, but they apparently have been active in Memphis for quite awhile. During the course of their performance, they mentioned playing down at the old Center for Southern Folklore which was on Beale Street, with saxophonist Fred Ford and pianist Booker T. Laury. At any rate, the J-Train Blues Band is a decent and entertaining blues band, and a good way to start the festival day.
