Lou Busch was a major arranger - conductor who created an alter ego for himself in the guise of Joe 'Fingers' Carr the ragtime and honky-tonk pianist. For the first time on one compilation we present both facets of the spectacular Lou Busch / Joe 'Fingers' Carr career.
All of Joe 'Fingers' Carr's hits are included: 'Lets Do It Again!', 'Music! Music! Music!', 'Maple Leaf Rag', 'Portuguese Washerwomen', 'Sam's Song', 'Down Yonder', 'Tiger Rag', 'Beer Barrel Polka', 'The Old Piano Roll Blues' and many more!
