12th St Rag

"12th St Rag" was composed by Sage Guyton and Jeremy Wakefield (and Nicolas Carr in "12th St Rag w_Bass"). Alongside "12th St Rag Slo," it is a ukulele and steel guitar arrangement of "Twelfth Street Rag," which was originally composed by Euday L. Bowman in 1914. It usually plays when something silly happens.
