Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Original listing and sheet music here: https://musescore.com/user/36482158/scores/17261017?from=youtube_share 
Cincinnati was a great hub for ragtime writers publishing their works, and we keep coming into ragtime rediscoveries from there that are surprisingly excellent. Here's another lost rag that needs rediscovering, an intricate and well-done score with an ending that sounds improvised. Alfred Howard Cooper (1890-1922) was from Newport, Kentucky just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati and published two known rags, this one and "Growls" from 1911. This rag was published by Cooper Publishing Co. in Newport in 1913.

Many thanks to Mitchy for finding and sharing this rare score. I have uploaded the original score here: https://mega.nz/file/zdgxVZ5A#yQetIO393yqio7gQzBrvWL4Oun-I0MDyZkGKmTxs7Nw

This is a reproduction of the original score. Have added sharps where missing in the bass; added a missing repeat bar after measure 33. I've aligned measures 5, 13, 37 and 45 so they all are the same as measure 45.
