- Joplin's first published rag (he had published songs previously), was this one in 1899.
After the success of their duet of "Russian Rag" ( • Russian Rag -- epic pi... ) for Tom's "play something with someone else" number at the 2010 Sutter Creek Ragtime Festival's finale concert, Sonny, right, decided to ask Tom up to play with him when it was his turn to invite someone.
Unlike "Russian Rag" which they had run through once the day before, this one was approached cold.

I'm posting this today because Sonny is giving a concert at Skunk Hollow today, to be followed by another all-night jam session. However, Tom has a prior engagement with the Raspberry Jam Band, so he won't be present, thus this sort of fantastic duet between these two won't be happening, alas!
(And at this time of year, the snow prevents me from making the trip over the Sierra Nevada, so I'll be missing both this all-night jam session and one coming up next month following a concert by Mimi Blais. RUclips's "verybigrifle" will be at the one today, at least, and should be getting some video.)

I like the dotted or swung rhythms in this one.
Syncopation.
@@joan9569 He means the swing feel they've put to this performance. A lot of ragtime was originally played straight but these two are singing this performance. Sounds great on any ragtime piece
Marvelous. For an unrehearsed performance, you guys really hit it off with one of Joplin's greatest rags. The two-piano arrangement gave it added dimension and depth, too. Bravo!
Duo fantástico
Thanks for posting. Great production of the Joplin Rag.
Fabulous! How could anyone resist this?!
These guys are just great performers.
Feel better Tom brier!
Syncopation... That LEFT HAND... That right heel... JOY!
Wow this is spectacular.
Scott Joplin was a genius
I see that Carl is playing the normal one, while Tom is playing a harmony that goes very well with the original
However, these are different versions of the original music.
Nice arrangement. Gets you in the groove.

THATS WHAT SHE SAID
@steinwaygrande1 They had gone over "Russian Rag" the day before. This one was just off the cuff.
I really enjoy how you played the Cascades i'm performing it this summer at my State Fair in front of many people. If you don't mind I am using a lot of your technique in the song. Your technique and additions to the song are so much more fun than the original.
Hep, Brierising going on. Thanks, 1st!
fuck i think i am gettting into rag time agian..I WANNA PLAY RAG TIME SO BAD NOW!
@goslingbiz Well, they play the last strain about 20 times...
Why are there so many songs about Alabama?
Ragtime came out of the South, and Alabama is the epitome of the South.
Scott Joplin's Original Rags played by 2 aliens being taught by Tom Brier and Carl Sonny Leyland after this recording of them.
