"Ragtime with whimsy" is how the Raspberry Jam Band defines itself, and some whimsy is to be heard in this performance of Scott Joplin's "Rag-Time Dance". This arrangement is based on the instrumental version of the tune published in 1906, where the first two strains have been omitted and an interlude has been put into a new key and used as the introduction. The Raspberries here are: Tom Brier; piano Julia Riley; flute & piccolo Mary Preston; violin, claves & slide whistle George Preston, euphonium Mark Meeker, tuba Kitty Wilson, washboard Recorded August 2008 in Los Altos, California.
