Unknown Rags & Ragtime Songs on Early "G" Rolls
By Jim Heyworth

Hi Folks,  I didn't have much luck with the missing tunes partly,
I think, because of the heavy arrangement/decoration and missing
instruments.

Roll G100-05 bears a strong resemblance to "After the Ball" by
C.M. Harris, 1892.  The verse does not match well with that of
the printed version but with the exception of the aforementioned
decoration, the chorus matches bar for bar.

For what it's worth...

Jim Heyworth,
Sechelt, British Columbia, Canada
