Hi Steve: I too am a great fan of "Sugar Cane." It has a harmonic structure similar to "Maple Leaf," but I actually prefer it to the earlier rag. Another good...
Hi Steve. That book has been the de facto beginner's Bible of ragtime since it first debuted in 1974. It has a good cross section of the best or most prolific...
Well, there's a reason that Joplin usually comes out on top in a list of the "best" ragtime composers. That "je ne sais quoi" that sets him apart just doesn't...
Hi Steve, I'm very sorry that I suggested rags you don't like very well. I like all the Lamb rags. American Beauty is probably my favorite (and I think it's...
