Pete Peterson	Tune Req: St. Louis Tickle (11)	RE: Tune Req: St. Louis Tickle	27 Oct 99
The arrangement "everybody" seems to know is the Dave van Ronk arrangement but he (DvR) put that together sometime in the 50s or so; the tune is much older than that. I think originally it was a piano rag but the best recording I know is Vess Ossman on Columbia in about 1905, re-released any number of times but I'm not sure where (I think my copy is an old Yazoo vinyl, half Ossman and the other side Van Eps. Yummm) When I made my tape for Marimac I simplified it to the point where i could play it. Somewhat different tune and emphasis from van Ronk's. Sorry I don't have a specific place to point to.
