One of those Stefan Grossman test pieces that me and my schoolmates vied with each other to get right first. I've messed it about a bit since, but it's still a gas to play.

I'd never heard then original until it showed up on Jazz Record Requests, played by the Dallas Ragtime Orchestra. It's a lovely piece, and, unsurprisingly, Stefan has got it off note for note. All acoustic guitarists owe him a great debt.
