We're Talking Ragtime is a vintage-pop and ragtime revival album by the British entertainer, music historian, and performer Ian Whitcomb alongside His Merry Bands. Initially released on CD on 15 June 1994 via the traditional jazz label Stomp Off Records (Catalog: STOMP OFF CD1276), the album reflects Whitcomb's lifelong passion for early 20th-century American music, Tin Pan Alley, and vaudeville.
The album captures the playful, energetic essence of the ragtime era across 25 tracks, including "Where The Black-Eyed Susans Grow," "When You Wore A Tulip," and "Till We Meet Again".

ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Andy!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Concha
DeleteThanks for this Andy, I've never heard of this artist before but interested in having a listen, especially as I've recently started trying to learn boogie/blues style piano.
ReplyDeleteHe does a lot of early 20th century styles. He has many albums but if you like this one, try "Under the Ragtime Moon"
DeleteHi Andy
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Ian Whitcomb was "different" for the times back in the 60's. He would often pop in at WBAI radio as a guest and talk & play uke. He had a hit song that got a lot of airplay "You Turn Me On". Hey thanks Andy.
Yes, Moezeke, he's an interesting character. After an unsuccessful stab at pop stardom, he carved an unusual niche for himself recreating the music of the 20s and 30s. There's lots of his stuff in YouTube..
