I promise all of you, if you don't give me Art Tatum's Tiger Rag, I will carry out Scriabin's plans and end the world by completing his Mysterium!!!

I know one of you have it, so don't be so freaking stingy and give me a copy!  Got it kidS?!

Because I'm holding the entire planet hostage!!!

most of my pelisorious editions are pretty clear (i.e my horowitz transcriptions and other art tatum works), but for this one you'll need to cross reference that one with the 'clean' one. especially for those important big lh opening chords, i can hardly make out the accidentals in that one

PS
audio too for those who are interested

But that's after I revive Horowitz.

Won't that scare off most performers into giving up piano?  :)

Learning to play the 1933 version up to tempo is one thing, but performances like that generally exists to tell everyone how weak and untalented they are and that no matter how hard they work they're better off playing the gramophone.

EDIT: OH sorry for necro-ing this.  :( I was just curious about transcriptions on Tiger Rag that I stumbled upon this, thought it was recent, and commented. Tsk tsk I'm too keyboard-happy.
