Jahrzehnte stand der Soundtrack zum Film "The Sting" (auf dt. hieß er glaub' ich "Der Clou") unbeachtet im Plattenregal in der Abteilung "hab ich, interessiert mich aber nicht". Erst jetzt beim Lesen des von @jazzblogger empfohlenen "Das Jazz Buch" konnte mein Gehirn eine sinnvolle Verbindung dazu herstellen! Scott Joplin, Komponist und Pianist des Ragtimes! Ragtime: eine Wurzel des Jazz.

Born #otd 24th November 1868 - #ScottJoplin.

Here’s a piano roll recording of #Joplin playing his own Maple Leaf Rag. A wonderfully invigorating way to start your Thursday.

This is the piece that made him famous and began his huge influence on the American approach to #piano but he died penniless nonetheless.
