Description:

Talk about career-spanning! This collection begins with Eubie Blake’s first piano roll, Charleston Rag, composed in 1899. Then come nine piano-roll performances from 1917 to 1921 and two early rags, Fizz Water and Chevy Chase. And the finale? His last two piano-roll recordings, performed in 1973 at age 90! That’s a lot of history on one CD.
