Album Description
Rags to Rhythms is a collection of rags, two-steps, cake-walks and marches recorded between 1907 and 1926. Unfortunately, this music is probably the most neglected of the jazz and blues idioms, even though it is one of the most important contributions to American pop music. Had it not been for the popularity of the motion picture The Sting in the 1970's and the reproduction of Scott Joplin, the music of the ragtime era may have been lost forever.
