Meredith and fellow string masters with this delightful rag entitled, "The St. Louis Tickle" composed in 1904 by Barney and Seymour, a pseudonym for Theron Bennett. Thanks to Dan Grinstead's liner notes to Evergreen Ragtime Trio's album 'It's a Rouser' for the information. The album comes highly recommended. ALSO a big THANKS to Paul Haaglund for giving me this information.
This performance took place at an afternoon concert in Columbia, Missouri. The concert was hosted by the BLIND BOONE RAGTIME & EARLY JAZZ FESTIVAL, and was one of many events during the three day festival.
It was great!
YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE!
the brilliance of the sound of the banjo, 'makes' this piece.

Yes, and that is Mr. Bob Ault performing the banjo part. He is a national treasure as are the other musicians in this group.
Thanks for your comment.
