Louis Armstrong 12th Street Rag 

@@cubcadet122 No. It's Jazz. The piece was originally a rag but played like this it's Jazz. Calling this ragtime is like calling Jelly Roll Morton or James P. Johnsons performances of the Maple Leaf Rag ragtime. The piece may have been a rag but jellys transformation of it makes it a jazz piece and Jimmys performance is just stride.

@@dylan-kerry ragtime numbers were ordinary part of New Orleans repertory - High Society rag, Panama rag, Tiger rag.... and several others. They were very interesting haveing several themes and sections and were good vehicles for improvisation

@@emilianoturazzi Oh yes they are great and all but this recording is not ragtime. It's a ragtime piece played by a jazz band in a jazz style. You couldn't call someone swinging Mozart classical now could you?

@@dylan-kerry I'm agreeing with you :) maybe I wasn't clear ... these pieces were written as ragtime but also played as jazz - saying "good veichles for improvisation" I assumed it was clear I was speaking of jazz. Proper ragtime doesn't feature any improvisation... and - my personal opinion - without improvisation (and thus becoming jazz) they are by far less interesting music... slightly more than an hystorical curiosity (but that's just my opinion). And, of course: Louis Armstrong's 12th street rag is jazz :)

It sort of sounds like the SpongeBob title screen
