For people like me that have an outsized knowledge of Joplin's rags, and a large ignorance of all the others, the last strain of the Pea Picker Rag (around 35:00) is very reminiscent of the third strain of the Peacherine Rag. Just wanted to let you know in case you were thinking, "Hey...haven't I heard that before?"
Thanks Adam .. My eyes sprang open at 4:30 and you were on my YT feed .. so I had a nice RagTime breakfast before the family got up. A nice start to the work week :) I was dreaming of how to incorporate some Riffs into my Harmonica, We shall see.
Thank you so much, Adam!! You have given us so much joy!!

Yes, this is part of my arrangement of the piece -- the original recording includes a strain reminiscent of "Peacherine Rag."
