5.0 out of 5 stars More Than Excellent, August 15, 2006
By 
This review is from: Rags to Riches: The Essential Hits of Scott Joplin (Audio CD)
I had previously purchased a Scott Joplin CD and was disappointed by the dull quality and dispirited playing by the artist. This CD more than makes up for it. The music was beautifully performed and the recording was very clear. Every piece was perfect!

This review is from: Rags to Riches: The Essential Hits of Scott Joplin (Audio CD)
Music is great, as is the playing. However, the last song is not Magnetic Rag but rather the same version of Maple Leaf Rag heard earlier on the album.

What is with that?
