Doc Brown's Cakewalk: Kansas City Rag (1899)
by georgeptingley

Here's another one from prolific Kansas composer Charles L. Johnson. Cakewalk, march, symphony, and operetta all seem to come together here.

"The number." said Johnson, "was named after an old, eccentric colored fellow who wore a swallowtail coat, carried a cane, and wore a plug hat. He would cakewalk on the street for a nickel or dime."

George Peter Tingley plays Doc Brown's Cakewalk by Charles L. Johnson.
