It doesn't appear so?

I still think you were name calling, but I get why you did it and where you were coming from.

Main point - HMT seems to be a post mortem title for releases. Thank you for that transcription of titles given.

The original question in this thread:

Hear My Train A Comin' - did Jimi ever call it that?

On stage, he introduced it as "Gettin' My Heart Back Togther" or "Lonesome Train" is there a rcording or interview where he calls it "Hear My Train A Comin" or was that title invented for the "Rainbow Bridge" album?

----------------------

The answer: on 8 jan 69 Jimi introduced the song onstage as Hear My Train A'comin' - so the answer is YES, that did happen - but most other times he introduced it as 'Getting My Heart Back Together'
You could say the title HMTaC was invented for RB, like Pali Gap was.
After all, when compiling RB, they didnt have this 8jan69 tape handy!

Thread's closed now, as is the case......if you dont agree or have additional info, PM me. Thanks.
