Scott Joplin, the King of Ragtime, was born 150 years ago today. He was almost completely forgotten until ragtime was rediscovered in the 70s. For my money, he's one of the greatest American composers of all time.
This is one of his best. Some beautiful melodies almost worthy of Chopin. Definitely more than saloon music.
