Florida RagNow available: the second edition of Archeophone's first release, RealRagtime. This new edition features fully remastered tracks, expanded notes, and a bonus selection. The sound of these 100-year old records is better than ever, and our understanding of the historical and musical significance of the songs is enhanced by added commentary from noted musician and scholar David Sager. Also, notice that the new Real Ragtime now features the original version of "Dill Pickles Rag" by Chris Chapman from 1908 and a bonus track, "Sugar Plum," by mandolin player Samuel Siegel, along with Roy Butin on harp-guitar.testing
