Pork and Beans Rag (1913)..Charles Luckyth "Lucky" Roberts.

This is another tune recorded by the Paragon Ragtime Orchestra (MP3 attached) and is very different to most other rags written at the time. Together with James P. Johnson, Roberts was a pioneer of stride piano playing and his later music was very much jazz related. This is reflected in his choice of the  chord progressions used in this tune. It wasn't easy to arrange for banjo but I think I've had a reasonable stab at it. The score and midi are in the library...Steve.
