Ragtime composer Scott Joplin (ca. 1868–1917) from Texas, became famous through the publication of the "Maple Leaf Rag" (1899) and a string of ragtime hits such as "The Entertainer" (1902), although he was later forgotten by all but a small, dedicated community of ragtime aficionados until the major ragtime revival in the early 1970s.
"The Entertainer" is a 1902 classic piano rag written by Scott Joplin. [1] It was sold first as sheet music by John Stark & Son of St. Louis, Missouri, [2] and in the 1910s as piano rolls that would play on player pianos.

There is another sound file on the Scott Joplin page - another rag he wrote, which has since been discovered by the same collector who had the Maple Leaf Rag. This time it's a recording of a player piano. It's interesting mainly because it was thought lost. I'll nominate that when I get a chance.Major Bloodnok 23:20, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
