Question for kirk(rags)

garydavis · #1 November 13th, 2006

I was wondering, cause lately Iv'e been playing alot of rag time songs and I know that you already have a rag time version of the entertainer and some other rag time picking lessons, but do you know any whole rag time songs that you can make a lesson out of? Its ok if you don't... But if you do I would really like it if you could make a whole lesson out of it and I know rags tend to be leghthly... But if your not up to it, maybe just a another any old lesson of rag time would be fine with me, thanks.

Hi, garydavis. I'm afraid I don't really know any rags as full pieces -- they're not really my style of playing -- but I'll look into some more snippets to do as lessons. I try and keep the lessons down to 30 seconds max as they incur quite a bit of bandwidth and it gets expensive ... they are, after all, free lessons.

Kirk,

Would you ever consider recording the full version of 'The Entertainer'? Forget free lessons, I would pay you lots of $$$$ for this. No problem.

I loved your Old Time Rag lesson.

I suppose in reality though, you literally don't have the time, but it's a nice thought.

Sleepy.
