"Colored Aristocracy" Annie & Mac Old Time Music Moment

This is a late 19th Century "cakewalk" (a slightly syncopated ancestor of ragtime) played here on a gut string banjo from the early 1900's, accompanied by rhythm guitar. http://www.annieandmac.com

@techman65 Thanks for your comments and message. I play this in a melodic clawhammer style.
