Rizing Sun Records has announced, the release of 'The Party Train', a new CD by ColdtrainBlues. ColdtrainBlues combines the elements of great rhythm and blues, traditional blues, along with the fiery vocals and guitar work of Jeffery 'Coldtrain' Colbert.

The Album brings back memories of the late great Johnny Guitar Watson, with provocative vocals and driving rhythms. The groups motto is 'Funkin' Da Blues' is more than a motto. With great guitar solos, that would make Eric Clapton, BB King, and all of the other great blues guitarists proud, this CD puts the rhythm in Rhythm and Blues and delivers a trainload of funk.

About the Jeffrey “Coldtrain" Colbert/Earl Foster Jr. Collaboration
Jeffrey “Coldtrain" Colbert was born in the great state of Nebraska, where he played and sang in his father's church, giving him the deep gospel roots that are apparent in his playing and singing.

This experience left a bitter taste in his mouth, as he slowly saw his dream start to slip away. Because of the richness of those life experiences, these experiences in his life actually helped him. His playing became stronger.
