Muskrat Ramble

[gnomely1]

@Howard492 Read the introductory piece at the top and you'll see that that's precisely what it is. Country Joe MacDonald simply took this tune and added his own excellent words. This is a classical piece of music from a much earlier time. Peace to you.

Many thanks - great to see that the Ory name still lives on. The Kid was a great player! :-) Will

@chefessboo Wonderful to read the words of his daughter. I wish you well-being and peace.

I was just listening to my Louis Armstrong Hot fives and Sevens cds and the liner notes mentioned that although Kid Ory is credited he most likely only came up with the title and that it is really an uncredited Louis Composition. I don't know if that's true, but I thought it was interesting.

[HenfieldWill]

Yes - that's interesting. I guess we'll never know. :-)

[southcoastsounds]

Yes, i recognise it. Very nicely played as always.

I love it! My dad had Muskrat Ramble on a 78RPM record and I grew up with tunes like this. It is one of my favorite ones. Maybe you know "Ballin' the Jack" too. 5*

Part of it reminds me of "Fixin to Die Rag" by Joe MacDonald

[HenfieldWill]

Correct Howard - take a peek at the "more info" link on the top right of this page... :-) Will
