Hi Walter - you're quite welcome, as always )

Here is a folio for blues fans - Jimmy Rushing was the vocalist with the Count Basie Orchestra for many years. This folio contains his wailin' favorites.

Now going back to songs some 100+ years old, a folio of tunes by the great Bert Williams "Ne'er To Be Forgotten".

Thanks Frank,

Love the Rohrschach on the Bert Williams - by page 8 it definitely suggests a Panda (or Koala) clinging precariously to the top of its slender bamboo.

Dear Martin,
the scores you posted in here and in the rag thread forum are great!!
As I had promised some months ago, I was about to scan the Frankie Carle arrangement of "Down Yonder" for you...I finally did it and here it is.
I must say that this arrangement is quite a delusion for me, since I'm too familiar to great authentic ragtime versions of this number like Johnny Maddox's or Joe Fingers Carr's to accept these things by Frankie Carle...
Anyway, here it is and I hope you'll find it interesting!

Hello All,

Reviewing my Roy Bargy folder recently, I discovered that I do not have a copy of "Ditto" - it's possible I have it in some other folder, since I have definitely seen the sheet music - however...
Would any kind soul be able to upload a copy, please.?

Regards,
tobyjj

Hi Toby,

Bargy's rag "Ditto" was not published as a sheet and exists only in piano roll form. Years ago I copied his manuscript from the Library of Congress. I'll try to find that and scan it for you.

All Best,

Frank

Hello!

I have a copy of "Ditto - I'll Have The Same" by Roy Bargy handy, and I'll save Frank the trouble of scanning.

Have fun with this one.
