What good is it to have a Rolling Stones fanboy in the Hall if he&#8217;s not gonna step away from the bong now and then and pitch in? Anyway, here&#8217;s the demo version that Johnny Winter probably heard. They played the song live once or twice (I&#8217;d have to look it up, I think once) and it sounds kind of like All Down the line on that one, which is probably why they dropped it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fileden.com\/files\/2007\/12\/1\/1619392\/silver%20train.mp3\" title=\"http:\/\/www.fileden.com\/files\/2007\/12\/1\/1619392\/silver%20train.mp3\"><strong>The Rolling Stones, &#8220;Silver Train&#8221; (demo)<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2000 Man, in our recent Johnny Winter-Rolling Stones&#8217; &#8220;Silver Train&#8221; thread, mentioned a third version of this Stones&#8217; deep cut that he&#8217;d share with us.
