Lately been into Jhené Aiko.”A&B And her whole album Chilmbo Deluxe & Queen Naija album that just came out.
Ragtime Guitar in Japan. What observations can you make about the University crowd?:
In the one @UKGuy shared, @25:00 Mr. Takashi introduces a song that's one I've heard a bazillion times, but I couldn't catch the name. Gah! I know it, and I can almost hear the words too!
Ugh... That's gonna drive me crazy... Anyone know it?
@quixotic_life Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag
Yay! @Mmart ~ Thanks!
@quixotic_life You are welcome. I love that song and his version on the guitar is really good. Too bad the audience is in a stupor.
@Mmart ~ Weird... It's ragtime style but I don't think that's it... or maybe and it just sounds so different?? But... huh...??
edit ~ Maybe a more recent band borrowed some of it (at approx 25:45, 26:20 & 27:00 it repeats)? Because I don't think I've ever heard it on piano, and it sounded the way he's playing it... do you have a link?
Lol ~ Unrelated circumstance (and how crazy I don't think I'd ever heard it before) but someone sent me this and it's so fitting...
@quixotic_life Cool video. What a talent that Freddie Mercury was.
@quixotic_life
@UKGuy That's cool. I haven't heard ragtime music played on a guitar before. One thing I've wanted to do and haven't yet is learning how to play some ragtime songs on piano.
Well, the song that was playing when I seen this was volcano by Jimmy Buffet!!! But the song I’ve been hooked on for awhile that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND is This is the Sea!!!
OK. Stand up. Git yer groove on.
I just heard about this group recently.
@Gemstone That reminds me of Brazilian style music, and the background looks kinda like the Sugarloaf in Rio de Janeiro.
Fur Elise in Ragtime
Omg! @littermate ~ That's great a throwback! ♡🕺
@FlyingToaster ~ When this pandemic is finally over, I'd like to find a Gangstagrass barn show to go to! How fun!!
@quixotic_life I think Gangstagrass is prettty good. They'd be fun to see. Also, I hadn't heard that Queen song before that you posted earlier. Cool to find something of theirs like that.
Bienvenido A La Maldad, by Hocico.
@dontremember: Ha! Hilarious. I like it.
I've been listening to this whole album on repeat for... a while now. It's only four songs, and three of them are just different takes on the same tune—but I dunno. I like it a lot! I grin like a kid every time the chorus hits, and drop everything I ever learned about dancing in favor of the kind of happy flailing I did when I was three.
This set of songs just delights me for some reason. Lifts my spirits every time.
@dontremember that Fur Elise made me laugh! 😆
There are a whole load of these from this guy.
Lol ~ @CuddleDuncan ~ I saw that during one of my YouTube spirals a few days ago and just loved it! Wouldn't it be great to see those done in old-timey, sepia silent film, with slapstick and pratfall comedic stylings?!
@quixotic_life yes it would!
This one is a very old and greatly loved friend, which popped up today for the first time in ... too long.
