Fastest ragtime piano yet heard by mere mortals; Tom Brier on "Redneck Rag"; 174 bpm

Tom hits an ungodly 174 beats per minute at the end of this performance of the show-off piece Redneck Rag. Previously the fastest I've clocked him at was 162 bpm. (And yes, this video was the inspiration for the "Funfair Fever" level music in the video game Cuphead. Tom, Julia and Kitty are even mentioned in the game's soundtrack album credits as inspirations.) This was Saturday evening at the July meeting of the Mother Lode Ragtime Society in Sutter Creek, California. He is joined by his "Saloon Sweeties": Julia Riley on piccolo and Kitty Wilson on washboard. Of course, Tom doesn't just play fast stuff, which you know if you've been watching my channel for a while. This is just a yee-haw sort of barn-burner that is meant to be played as fast as you can. The rag is attributed to "Brian March" but we all figure that it's Tom's doing... or maybe, as I suspected, he and Eric Marchese -- Bri & March...
