Query: Liked most of it

Please note that this album isn't exclusively Ragtime - it also contains some stride/jazz pieces.If Ragtime is what you are after, check out Richard Dowling's other album,World's Greatest Piano Rags. It's excellent.When Dowling sticks to the original compostion, the results are very pleasing. He does at times take a different tact to playing certain phrases - occasionally swapping legato for staccato (and vice-versa), and this gives him a kind-of signature sound (he doesn't do this excessively).It's when he takes more of an artistic license with embelishments that I'm tempted to hit the fast forward button. For example, his excursions on "The Entertainer" seem rather dubious to me.For the most part though, this album is quite listenable (especially liked "Handful of Keys" and "Magnetic Rag").
