Rubber Plant Rag - A Stretcherette

A rag written by George L. Cobb and published in 1909. I picked up the old sheet music for this a few years back, although I wasn't familiar with tune. Recently I heard a midi performance of the tune by "Perfessor" Bill Edwards and decided to try to play it on ukulele. Check out Bill Edwards' site for tons of ragtime: http://www.perfessorbill.com/pbcov6.shtml His Rubber Plant Rag midi file is at : http://www.perfessorbill.com/covers/rbbrplnt.htm Sheet music can be viewed at the Charles H. Templeton Sheet Music Collection, Mississippi State University: http://digital.library.msstate.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/SheetMusic&CISOPTR=3357 Ted Tjaden has a web page on George Cobb and his music at: http://www.ragtimepiano.ca/rags/cobb.htm [This is a repost.
