This outstanding sheet music collection is jam-packed with 50 Charles Johnson compositions. Piano players will have their audience tapping their toes to the syncopated rhythms of all Johnson's rags, including his famous Dill Pickles. The volume also shows Johnson's talent and diversity through a representative cross-section of other styles of his music, including ballads, waltzes, tangos, cakewalks, and novelty songs. Each selection features its original cover design and is digitally reproduced from the original song sheets, showing the reader a variety of typefaces and printing styles of the era. This edition is intended primarily for performance. Included in the book are some of his more popular titles: Iola, Dill Pickles, Apple Jack, Porcupine Rag, Barber Pole Rag, Blue Goose Rag, Crazy Bone Rag, Hen Cackle Rag, Powder Rag, Tar Babies Rag, Honeysuckle Tango, Doc Brown's Cakewalk, Scandalous Thompson, and Warwick Club March. Selections also include songs Johnson wrote under such pseudonyms as Raymond Birch and Ethel Earnist.
