about

After many months of by-the-seat-of-our-pants recording and production, we finally have it: Tracks for a Moving Train. Come for the classics, stay for the many new arrangements. This album is the culmination of eighty years of SOB sound, tradition and family. With some remarkable solos, wild musicality, and a few easter eggs, we have something for everyone. All aboard!
