"This is a special limited edition strictly limited to 500 copies -- one release only. This is the firrst reissue of two outstanding, very rare and highly collectible tracks by The Ethiopians. They were initially released on two different singles and are put together on a single here for the first time. This is the very first reissue of 'Train To Glory' on 7". This super rare and super good 1968 Rocksteady song complete with kitch train-like sound effects and superb harmonies. It was initially released on Gayfeet in 1968 in Jamaica and Doctor Bird in the U.K. with the song 'You Got The Dough' on the B Side and was never repressed until now. On the B Side, 'Mek You Go On So' was released as a single only (with the song 'Neck Tie' by Winston Wright on the B Side) on JJ Records in Jamaica and on Duke Records in the U.K.in 1970. This real catchy Rocksteady track is very representative of The Ethiopians at the top of their art while they were produced by JJ Johnson. It was never released on album, as a result good and very scarce copies of the original single fetch top dollars today!"
