12th St Rag ORIGINAL 1914 PLAYER PIANO ROLL 2012 06 02 22 37 09

This is a recut of an original 1914 roll of 12th St. Rag.,by Euday L. Bowman. It was Universal Roll # and it is not played by anyone; the roll is "mechanically arranged" Universal was a subsidiary of Aeolian, and I suspect that Rudolph Erlebach had more than a little to do with it. Although the song has always been popular, here it is exactly as they heard it in 1914. I hope you agree with my tempo,
