Favorite Music for Coin-Operated Pianos
By James Huffer

Thanks to Don Teach on his favorite coin-operated pianos [050915
MMDigest].  I am curious what others have to say about which instruments
provide the best sounding and most interesting arrangements of music.
To further the list of favorites, one needs to determine the type of
music being played.   So much has been debated about which rolls are
the best, and I am going out on a limb to guess that each roll type
is known for a specific genre of music.

That being said, what would you play on that favorite instrument and
why?  As a non-owner of a mechanical instrument, I have been listening
and reading on them to determine my favorite or instrument of desire
as well.
