The tar Heel Blues (Foxtrot/Rag)..1915..James Timothy Brymn.

[Steve Harrison]

This is another good tune recorded by the Paragon Ragtime Orchestra (MP3 attached). Despite the title, it isn't a blues but described on the score as a Foxtrot/Rag. I had to simplify the arrangement somewhat for it to work on banjo but I think I've arrived at a pretty close approximation to the PRO recording. I've kept it in the original key of G. Cuban Cakewalk is another Brymn tune in the library that I arranged some time back and to which I may give a second look. I couldn't find a title page so I've added a picture of the composer, he had an interesting career and is well worth googling to see his biography. The score and midi are in the library...Steve.
