Here's Jo Ann Castle to play one of her all time favorite standards: Joplin's famous 1899 "Maple Leaf Rag". It's interesting that this is the only recording I've heard where she omits the trio and simply repeats the A and B strains again. While I prefer her original album recording and various period Welk Show performances of the tune, I thought this was interesting enough to upload. From the 2003 PBS pledge drive program, "God Bless America".
