Since 1978, Jazzou Jones has thrilled many a river traveler performing his one-man piano show "Riverboat Ragtime" on steamboats and showboats along America's inland waterways. The river has proven to be the perfect performance venue for the wonderful, toe-tapping syncopations of that all-American music form, RAGTIME!! Not only does he perform in a lively style as handed down to him from his ivory tickling grandparents, but Jones has charmed his audiences with his own rag compositions, "High Water," (1981) and "Paddlewheel Rag," (1998), both included on this CD. In addition to Jazzou's original compositions the listener will enjoy many ragtime gems by the ragtime mssters Scott Joplin, James Scott, Joseph Lamb, and Eubie Blake. Also included are works by noted ragtimers Cy Seymour and Homer Denney.
