"Waterloo Girls", played by HAMADA Takasi

This is another guitar solo arrangement of David Thomas Roberts' piano ragtime which is included in this CD.

My arrangement (tuning: EbAbCFCEb, Capo3) was completed in 2004, and released in CD "Plays Roberto Clemente and other rags" (2005), as well as 'Roberto Clemente'.

Bravo!!! Your right hand should NOT be able to DO THAT! and the thumb on your left is doing more than the entire left hand of most Ragtime Masters!

... and that vibrato at 3:40 gave me goose bumps!

[HAMADATakasi]

Thank you!

I'm not a master but only a ragtimer in Japan, though I am encouraged to your words.

Thank you so much for your comment.

I'm very encouraged to see it.
