Excellent introduction to fingerpicking guitar
This is an excellent book for fingerpicking style guitar with very playable bluesy and ragtime peices that walk you through each song bar by bar. I lost the record that came with it but fortunately recorded on a cassette when I first got this over 10 years ago. Highly recommend.

Ragtime, the jaunty, toe-tapping music that captivated American society from the 1890s through World War I, forms the roots of America s popular musical expression.But the understanding of ragtime and its era has been clouded by a history of murky impressions, half-truths, and inventive fictions.Ragtime: A Musical and Cultural History cuts through the murkiness.A methodical survey of thousands of rags along with an examination of then-contemporary opinions in magazines and newspapers demonstrate how the music evolved and how America responded to it."The most complete available discussion of ragtime"(Floyd & Reisser, Black Music in the United States). ...

Ragtime:
This is a well-written and researched book about Ragtime Music.I particularly appreciate the time given to the vocal music of the era, since it was the foundation of ragtime we now associate with piano literature.Edward Berlin analyzes several compositions and gives valuable information regarding the elements of what makes a composition a "rag."For those interested in American music of this era, I highly recommend Ragtime: A Musical and Cultural History. It is a worthwhile book to add to your collection. ... Read more
