Cremona M-725
Cremona Roll M-725 Artists
by Bob Billings (070728 MMDigest)
David Ramey is offering copies of M-725 for sale. It's a very
nice blues roll, hand-played, and one every M-machine owner should consider
owning. Can anyone identify the artist(s)?
I stripped off everything but the notes in the attached files and just
for fun I added A-roll instrumentation to the first two tunes. The
titles are below.
