About this album

Ron Falson’s The Sting is a lively ragtime album that taps directly into the Scott Joplin revival sparked by the hit film The Sting. Issued in 1974, it draws on the same period style that brought ragtime back into the public ear, with familiar pieces such as The Entertainer, Solace and Pineapple Rag anchoring the programme. Framed by jazz and stage-and-screen context, the set captures how early 20th-century syncopation was reintroduced to mainstream listeners through cinema and recording. As a companion to that cultural moment, it reflects the enduring appeal of Joplin’s melodic invention and rhythmic bounce.
