Interesting piece. You obviously could

smooth it out for presenting. Looks kinda

tricky. 3 stars could be 5.

I'll be dang - a fine little tune there!!

Dave, thnaks. Is it here on Youtube? Cant find it.

[ddanze]

Mark, I put up an attempt at a "tutorial" for

this tune for ya...but haven't done this type

thing before (on tape) so it's a bit rushed

and the focus (audio & visual) off some.

If you want I could re-do it slower, clearer.

Structurally very similar to Joplin's "Pineapple Rag" which was near

the end of "The Sting" ca 1972 with Newman and Redford.

Dave, yea, I distinctly recalling hearing this song towards the end of the movie. The more I hear this song the more I like it. I already Googled it and there is no tab anywhere. Dont have time to learn it be ear so looks like you are giving a workshop in the future : )

Was it in the "the Sting" ? Think "Pineapple Rag" was in it (will post that one for you soon, it'll be another scratchy recall).

This actually IS an easy tune. Some music notes would help remove some

of the many errors with this sorta tune.
