Greetings all again. Tonight I'll attempt another broadcast - no family around to divert me - of classically based ragtime. Interesting treats that will...
Hi Cindy. I don't have the piece recorded. I do have a copy (not original) of the music and cover. I'm hoping to finish the Joplin song cycle sometime by...
You have an open invitation to come play here in Panama City Beach. Can't pay but offer a beautiful beach/Gulf and some wonderful food. (I'm the cook in the...
Hi all, I've managed to produce another rag. It was too large to upload to the group, so here goes: www.aristotletutors.com/peppershaker.mp3 Comments (and...
I was wondering if anyone is familiar with James P. Johnson's early piano rolls which were clearly Ragtime. I once had a vinyl L.P. back in the 1970's that was...
Hi Fred. Some of the issue, which is legitimate and that Bob Pinsker would be able to fill in more detail on, with putting Johnson's works in print has to do...
Bill, Thanks for the info. I had a friend when I was in college in the 1970's who also happened to be into Ragtime. He also had a much better ear than I've...

Oddly enough, at work just today I'd been wondering when you'd write another one. And there it was when I got home! It's very nice. The chord progression in...
Hey guys! I got the Ragtime stuff from Amazon-came in yesterday's mail. Just listening to CD 1 right now here at work. I need to go to a stage version of the...
I wish I had your gift. I just can't seem to be able to play a rag, much less write one. I can play stride but not a rag. My left hand is just too clumsy. ...
... may be a group down there in the Magic Kingdom down in Orlando (not sure now far that is from YOUR FL location) called the Rhythm Rascals. I wish I was...
Bob, Thanks for responding and for the additional info. I hope your transcriptions get published. I know that this might not be accepted conventionalism, but...
... If you do, one of my friends from the San Antonio Ragtime Society will probably want it. She's just learning the washboard. Alas, she's still too shy to...
Hi Bob- Aside from the copyright issues for the Johnson book, I was wondering whether the general investment required for *printing* has been a stumbling...
I'm about a 6 hour drive north or Orlando. We've never been to the Orlando area. Panama City Beach is about 5 hours east of New Orleans. Actually, we could be...
... Hi Cindy. Are you sure? Let me dispel the confusion again. The 2-disc set is, as best I know, FROM the stage musical, NOT the movie. The DVD you bought ...
One more place for trad jazz, but not so much ragtime, and this one was kinda obvious. It was BBQ that made me think of it. MEMPHIS. Not so bad. Nashville is...

Oh, my goodness. Where should I start? I just returned from a day with Mike Montgomery!! Beware: This is going to be a long post. There should be some stuff in...
... Not to be Mr. obvious, or Mr. deflation - just for fun and nuttin' else: WHAT ABOUT SCHOOL? Didja graduate already?? Not even 15 yet?? Tee hee (remember -...
Ha ha. Wish I could just graduate. School in Texas doesn't start until Monday. But I'll only be there for three days, and it's off to Eau Claire! Adam...
