November 24, 2006 | Ragtime Fiddle & Mandolin

If Joplin is your bag (or your rag!), check out the latest from Steve Parker, a 124 song transcription book of popular Ragtime songs arranged for Fiddle and Mandolin with accompanying guitar chords. Songs are collected from old time string bands, individual solo artists, and 33 transcriptions of piano rags, 4 from Scott Joplin.

Included are a complete index, discography, references to website resources, and a CD of MP3 audio to help you learn. This is a great opportunity to experience the earliest roots of jazz, and just play some fun songs.
