"Occident Express" Artcraft Music Roll
By Al Pebworth

Hello Robbie, I had a surprise the other day. In going through
some stored Ampico rolls, I came across an Artcraft music roll,
the "Occident Express", by Robin Frost, and arranged by you.
Interpreted by L. Douglas Henderson for the Ampico.

I have played it on my Duo-Art, without expression, and just can't
wait to hear it on a customer's Ampico early next year.

 [ just runs the other direction!"  Also published as Hot Piano
