Arthur Marshall

Swipesy Cake Walk (1900) Scott Joplin and Arthur Marshall Fine, but don't take our word for it; get it. Kinklets A Ragtime Two Step (1906) Arthur Marshall No one knows better than we know that a slick vaudeville bunch can project a piece of music onto the market with the force of a catapult, and we also know that three weeks later may find it in the garbage pail. Such is not Kinklets. It reveals new thought with each repetition, and five years hence will smother the season's "hits" one by one as Maple Leaf now does.

Scott Hayden

Sunflower Slow Drag A Rag Time Two-Step (1901) Scott Joplin and Scott Hayden This piece came to light during the high temperature of Scott Joplin's courtship, and while he was touching the ground only in the highest places, his geese were all swans, and Mississippi water tasted like honey-dew...If there ever was a song without words this is that article; hold your ear to the ground while someone plays it and you can hear Scott Joplin's heart beat.

Louis Chauvin

Heliotrope Bouquet A Slow Drag Two-Step (1907) Scott Joplin and Louis Chauvin ...the audible poetry of motion

E.J. Stark

Kyrene An Oriental Intermezzo (1903) This is a fancy flight of a highly cultured musician into the realm of popular taste. He has hooked the rabble wagon however to a star and moved the procession toward a higher peg. It is to your credit if you like Kyrene. Get it.
