Nothing like a bit Scott Joplin to liven things up! I like the "laid back" tempo in this one. Joplin often marked "Not Fast" on his music, and it always bothers me to hear it played like someone was going to a fire.

I'm assuming that the recording is taken from a piano roll that Joplin made, which makes the recording "by" Scott Joplin...
