A pretty straight forward arrangement of the great Scott Joplin ragtime standard. I'm using a Martin 000-18GE. Thanks so much for watching, dale.

Elderly British types, like me, may remember a "talent" show called Opportunity Knocks and this song performed on piano by a certain Bobby Crush. I had the misfortune to go to a primary school where his brother was a teacher. We sat glumly as this mongrel Clayderman/Liberace/Jimmy Osmond virtuoso mangled the tune during our assembly. Real masochists can goto http://www.bobbycrush.com (don't skip the intro)
But, if you have sense, listen to Dale's Martin instead. Rebuilt my faith in Dixie. |

your killing me! So funny - i don't know who dressed young Bobby but it makes a statement.
I apologize for bringing up such painful memories with this tune! Please forgive.
