5 - Junk Man Rag
Key of C, standard tuning.
Composed by Luckey Roberts in 1914. Swedish guitarist Lasse Johansson arranged this in a very tasteful way. Many of those classic rags are very difficult to play and don't sound "guitaristic". Lasse's arrangements are very playable, with some practice of course.

6 - McGee's Rag
Key of C, standard tuning.
Composed by John Pearse using many "cliché's" of the genre. Also a very playable ragtime piece.

7- Maple Leaf Rag
Key of C, standard tuning.
One of the most famous rags composed by Scott Joplin. There are many versions of this one, most of them played way too fast and extremely difficult to play. This version however is very playable and follows Scott Joplin's instructions : don't play too fast (something he wrote on the sheetmusic of most of his compositions). This arrangement was recorded in the mid seventies by Gary Peterson.
