Mainspring
Press Digital's first multimedia production, The Ragtime Discography
combines text, images, and audio files to document the full spectrum
of historic ragtime recordings.
Building
on the author's 2003 Cakewalks, Rags and Novelties, this
work has been expanded to cover records issued through the end of
78-rpm production. The existing entries have been updated based
on newly discovered primary-source materials, and hundreds of U.S.
and foreign cylinders and 78s of all eras have been added.
The
Ragtime Discography
contains the most detailed discographic data to be found, largely
from the original company recording files and catalogs. As a bonus,
you'll find full-color reproductions of more than 50 rare sheet-music
cover, along with 98 early ragtime recordings expertly digitized
in MP3 format.
This Windows CD-ROM
will run on all Windows PCs, as well as Mac OS-X computers or other
Macs capable of reading Windows-format discs. We
recommend a minimum 512mb of RAM.
Auto-start
is disabled for Macs; the files can be opened directly from the
desktop or directory on both Windows and Mac computers.
Abode Acrobat
or Acrobat Reader is required. An MP3 player (Windows Media Player,
QuickTime, iPod, etc.) is required to play
the audio files.
