Butch Thompson @ Blind Boone Ragtime/JazzFest - June 2007

[oct43]

By the way, many thanks for sharing this video, Tom. I am enjoying it a lot.

I found it! It's an original of BT's called "A Solas", which I believe is Spanish for "alone" or "lonely". It's based on folk music from Ecuador. I love the mix of Latin and ragtime.

Anybody know the name of this tune?

I wish I knew myself. i would certainly have included it in the writeup had I known. Maybe someone will see this and provide us an answer.

I've had the pleasure to work with Butch on several occasions, and have long admired his keyboard work. He's a great clarinet played as well. Thanks for posting this.
