Cartoon Elephant Rag

After all the kind comments I received about Wind River Rag, here's another one of my Ragtime tunes. This one is in open D tuning with lots of high register melody notes against an alternating bass. It's one of my favourite tunes to play! Its fairly busy, so I have to work quite hard to keep a lightness in the feel.
As always, this is recorded direct to disc, with no effects or editing used.
The mics are Rode NT5s. The guitar is my Collings 002H.
